Ticking noise from right side of motor.

Hi there, I have a ticking noise from the right side of my engine that has recently developed. My bike is a 1984 VF750F Interceptor. It is more pronounced when I lean the bike over to the right. If anybody has any idea of what this might be and how I can fix it, this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

how's your oil?

 

You may want to pull the clutch cover and check the 3 bolts on the starter clutch - they have been known to back out and make contact with the clutch cover. If that is the case, use blue locktite on them and torque them to 28 lbs ft. (check the manual for the correct torque).
