[QUOTE="DocDanDC, post: 223131, member: 1220"] I have a '05 and it does the same thing. It started about 3k miles too. Same intermittent pattern and gets fainter when it warms up or is restarted, although warm, after a Lunch or gas stop (15min) The bike usually runs at 2bars on the heat guage. The Corona Yamaha dealer in Corona, CA didnt know what it was either. I can tell you that I dont worry about it much. Just a noise....I guess. AND I dont know if WC recalls this but I had him listen to it in Reno, NV last year and he said it did NOT sound like a "Ticker". We then did the Throttle body job on it but didnt notice any difference. The bike just runs strong though. Until it stops, I just keep my AAA card current and go have fun. I will say that I helped the situation by increasing the idle RPM's about an extra 50-60 revs. B) [/QUOTE]
