Why does my Harley Davidson make a ticking noise?
Water jackets will hide a lot of that noise. The engines will be better but part of the ‘heart and sole’ will be gone. In the mean time, if we want quiet smooth rides we need to switch to competition’s machines, those ones that try so hard to imitate the real deal.
Why does an overhead cam engine make a clicking noise?
In an overhead cam engine, the camshaft lobes themselves depresses the valve while in single cam engines, the cam actuates push rods that open the valves by moving a lever called the rocker arm. Since your valves move very quickly and only move a short distance, the distance from the cam or pushrod to the valve needs to be very precise.

Why is my engine ticking at idle and acceleration?
An exhaust manifold leak is the cause of engine ticking at idle and acceleration. It happens when exhaust gases leak at high pressure from a leak in the gasket or a rupture in the manifold. This is not a serious problem, and you can still drive. But, fix it as soon as possible because excessive leaking of exhaust gases won’t be good for the engine.
