For the past couple months my 04 400ex has continuously ticked. I replace timing chain timing a month ago and the tick continued. Thought it was stretched so I replace it again today and still ticks. I've inspected almost everything. Gaskets are all good, tensioner is good piston is good, there's nothing rattling in the motor like bolts or nuts.
The ticking increases in speed when i give is throttle. I know that usually means its the chain but the chain is 100% ok nothing wrong with it brand new.
I need some advice on what it could be, I heard that the decompression pin could cause ticking on 400ex's, it's a stock cam and the decompression pin sticks up. I also heard that some 400's just tick from the showroom at the start of their lives and there's no way to stop it, please give me a some advice on what I should do or check. Thanks for any help.
