RE: noise
when you check the oil do you do it when the kick stand down or when they nike is up right
When you check the oil level in your bike, it has to be while the bike ispositioned vertically straight up& level; not leaning over on the kickstand. Otherwise you willget an inaccurate reading and possibly end up adding too much oil. Also, how many miles does it have? Has it ever had the valves checked/adjusted?

RE: noise
Well, the manual says 16K for the valves. If it were me, I'd go ahead and change the oil & filter; fill it up to the appropriate level, which you should do anywaysinitially after purchasinga used vehicle. Start simple, then progress to the more complicated stuff if that don't work. I'm wondering if the noise you're hearing is not the cam chain tensioner, but I believe that only occurs within certain rpm ranges. Maybe someone else can shed some light.
