I've adjusted mine in the last 2-3 months with little riding(maybe 60 miles,or so) on it since,and I've noticed that it ticks a little bit on the really hot days,but sounds smoothly quiet on the cooler days(under 115 in the shade)...

How long,or how many hours has it been since they were last adjusted???Changing the oil to fresh oil quietens them down some as well as the adjustment...
