Default Tapping noise while decelerating
I have an 05 F4i with about 3400 miles on it. Today I noticed a tapping sound while decelerating in gear...kinda like a woodpecker going at my gearbox. Any thoughts of what this could be? Or if its even an issue at all?

I have searched and read in depth on the CCTL. All the information i've seen throughout the web, not just this forum, put the CCTL issue popping up around 5-6k rpm on bikes with 8k+ miles. Generally speaking. Thus why I made this post.

All F4i get some sort of noise from the CCTL

So when exactly does your bike tap? all ranges of rpm? low rpms? could be different issues. More detail is reqd

While decelerating, in gear, from about 5k rpm down. When i put the clutch in the noise goes away. I also noticed this morning that when I let the clutch out in neutral there is a slight grinding noise.

CCTL sounds like a buzz / baby rattle not really a grinding.
