My bike has a small ticking sound when it is warmed up. If im listening for it, i can hear it at lights and i hear it before i shut it off. I have heard that this may be the injectors but id just like to have that confirmed... Thanks. Also is this something i should be concerned about or is it normal?

OMG! Yamaha's only tick like that just before they EXPLODE!!! :BLAA:


Thats the Yami tick dude, I'll say it before someone else pipes in. Totally normal, everyones FZ6 does this, including mine. My R6 does it now too. Any Yamaha inline 4 will tick like this.

To add to the Yamaha tick, it's mainly from the cam chain tensioner, it's fairly noisy some change over to a manual tensioner to quite it down.
