It's a noisy engine at all RPMs. I can't identify the sound to which you are referring.

I agree, it is a very noisy engine. If you think there is a problem take it to the dealer, better safe then sorry.

You may be hearing the valves which go tick tick tick etc BMW engines are quite noisey

When you get up to speed (65-70mph) it gets really loud. For some reason below 55 mph it is bearable.
I am hoping that Dr. Pulley sliders/rollers will bring the rpms down and make it quieter.

I wear a half helmet
when I do the engine sounds very loud
when I don't wear a helmet it is very quite and smooth sounding
all my kymcos were the same way
I think it the way the helmet picks up certain sound
it is like a loud clanking sound no helmet no sound
and I sit behind a big windscreen so I hear every thing
not saying ride with no helmet but try it and see if the sound you here goes away
I bet it does and then don't worry bout it
and my timing chain make a lot of noise

I do not notice the sounds that people talk about. The only thing I notice is the clicking of the fuel injectors as they fire at idle, above idle it is smooth and much quieter. One of my sons has a 12 BMW 328i it makes the same sound at idle as my bike it may be a BMW thing. the injector solenoids may be similar in design.
