how many miles do you have on it? I noticed a lot more engine noises early on, some of which concerned me a bit but those have died away as the bike became broken in.

No idea if that's your issue or not, just asking so we know where you are at in the process.

I'll second what thatch said. Mine was like a bucket of bolts till i got a few thousand miles on it. None of the sounds were constant tho, just intermittent noises. But keep an eye on it and if it's a distinct sound thats always there then it might be worth investigating.
