I just my 750 back on the road and started hearing a tap seems from the front cylinder. It's a mild tap. Seems when I am on throttle but is less when l roll off. I think it's getting a little worse as time goes on any ideas?

He is very knowledgeable I am trying to pick his brain about this tick. It dosnt seem like a rocker or a major problem but as we all know a little clip can be a major problem in time. Thank you for your help . I did however plug the large hose that runs to the valve underneath the seat. Iam waiting for a small hose from the rear cyl. Reed valve out let and hooking all of them back up to see if that may be my problem.

He's helped me quite a bit
Thanks y'all, maybe giving me too much credit, a lot of people here know what they're doing, I just have had a lot of time for reading posts and answering questions.
I would see what restoring the reed system does. The thread about that previously, the owner was all over the engine and in the end it was the reed valves making noise. If you start it with the reeds removed there's a puff of air every fourth revolution that makes noise too. If the reeds are unhooked they might still smack closed after the puff of air.
A video with sound can help if the reeds don't cure it.

Iam waiting for the rear cyl. hose and then doing all of the hook ups once . the rear hose was dry rotted so i am replacing it. Cant find the larger hose that hooks on the side of em. valve under the seat no one has it.
Its unavalable. So I the may extend it and fix it at same time.

eBay probably has it or use heater hose. Or just block it all off. I have all those hoses I took off.
