    If the primary chain adjusted properly just ignore it. If the motorcycle has more than 25000 miles or the primary chain has not been properly adjusted the primary chain tensioner boot might be worn and you need to replace it. Inspect the primary chain and check if the primary chain slack deviation are in the acceptable tolerance zone along all length using service manual as guide.

    ^^^^^^ Good advice " Just ignore it" ( NOT! ) You might want to check your front exhaust gasket for leakage. sounded louder around there.
