Engine tapping noise

[Scott24]

Does the noise disappear when you pull the clutch lever in. We need more info or a sound clip to help here as noises are very difficult to diagnose over the internet.

Noticed another noise apart from timing Chain , when I let clutch out in neutral I can hear the bearing , are they easy to change or is it gunna be bigger than I'm thinking

If it disappears when pulling the lever in then don't worry about it, they all do it, some a little worse than others. Get louder cans and you wont hear it anymore.

Every bike I've had has had a rumble from the clutch that disappears when it's pulled in. Nothing to worry about.

After finally checking the bike over after a good clean , discovered it has already fitted manual ccts
So pretty chuffed that job is done :-) now is the question tho ! I'm still getting tapping when it's warm intermittent so do I adjust ????

I would double check everything has been done correctly. Check the timing including that the cams are lined up, and also check and adjust if necessary the chain tension.

While you in there you may as well check the valve clearances. This then at least gives you peace of mind that everything is in order there.

We need more info than "tapping noise but it's intermittent", a better description and/or sound clip of the noise. Noises are one of the hardest things to diagnose over the internet as all we have to go on is whatever you describe. With little info it becomes a bit of a guessing game.
