Default Change cct,cam chain, sprocket,guides. still small tick sound

I most try this forum
i have a lot ticking sound from the engine.
Change the CCT fisrt with no luck.
Then i change CCT again, with new cam chain and sliders an cam sprocket both and guide all 3.

Then most of the sound disapper. But have a little sound yet.
Do any know what i could be?
Shims the valves maybe?

It has run 37000 KM which are 22990 Miles.

Yes i know... but it's a small job to take it apart the top... just about 2 hours...

Ok so honda ticks? ok.. nothing to be afraid of then?

it does have a few miles so have the valves been looked at? If they have then its probably normal. I'm sure its nothing, most hondas do it.. they are light bikes and light components with an open engine.. its really easy to hear sounds lol.

Ok. thank you.
I will just hear on the engine if it's change sound.
Then i drive until to the winter and take a full check
.

Does anyone know how it's possible to take CCT back out. need to take it out again. but i just change it 3 times on 2 years so i think it's enought CCT to chang now.
It's get expensive to buy another again.
