Default Ticking noise plese help

So I started my bike today after about 3 days of it sitting. And when i started it there was a little ticking noise unfamiliar from when i have always started it. It was not loud but i should say unusual. When i give it gas the noise goes away. Could this be from bad gass from last time I filled up which was before i had it sit the last 3 days. Let me know your thoughts.

Have you tried tightening your pipes? I just recently put a full exhaust on my bike and the "ticking" was present so after I tightened my headers once more the "ticking" was gone.
And I doubt it was the gas..

Default ticking

my guesse would be your due for valve adjustment. if the sound is coming off the top of the engine im sure that is your prob. unless you have something else loose. check everything external first. good luck with it. hope you get it lined out.
