I spent countless hours and a couple hundred bucks diagnosing a loud ticking noise that was a simple problem. :BLAA:
Turns out the automatic cam chain tensioner had a small piece in it that rattled. If you remove it and shake it back and forth you can hear the tick, obviously slower than when...

You are my savior dude, I will grab the fairings and black inner fairings. Dropped my bike 2 weeks ago and smashed up fairing in upper left corner. Any more pics of the cracks you were talking about?
