You already have an open thread on this topic?

But its hard to tell from this video as well. Obviously this is on the fritz and will get worse. Since it doesnt sound that bad yet and you dont want to fix it...let it ride. I dont hear much else...F4i's shift pretty rough in my own opinion. Bike sounds decent.

How many miles on the bike?

When was the last time you checked the valve clearances?

Sounds like it involves a trip to a mechanic. Its not for begginers.
