Default very slight ticking noise

Its usually when its just idleing i dont really notice it while under power. I know what the cct sound sounds like and thats not it. From what I can gather the valves sometimes need adjustment? Think this could be the problem. I know she runs awesome, but it does have over 30k now.

Seems like valve tick to me. My bike has a tad over 30K on it and does that and I had the valves adjusted under 1K ago. All SOHC and DOHC engines do that, but in a car you don't really hear it since the hood is down most of the time. If the valves have never been adjusted then I would have that done, but if it's not real bad you are not going to hurt the engine.
