I’ve since replaced the cam chain as the ticking noise you’re hearing was it being stretched to the maximum amount of tensioner travel. This bike had the crank oil mod done so when I pulled the cam to inspect the lines and rockers I found them to be in perfect shape (which was a huge relief!). I then tightened the cam chain and adjusted the valves and now the bike is much quieter. But I’m still going to replace the stretched cam chain with a new one.
No tool needed. The cam pullls straight out at TDC when you remove the bearing retainers. Thread the sprocket bolt back in and use a claw hammer to wedge the cam out of the cylinder head.
