Maybe before you just rip it apart. Take off the valve cover and check the valve and cam. Could be a valve stuck open. Do a search for valve adjustment and go from there. should provide enough info to get you started.

How many miles are on this bike? That would be one heck of an unusual problem. Are you sure you are not just hearing the injectors ticking?

Odd indeed. Like lectric said, I think I'd check for stuck valves first. If it is a stuck valve, GM used to sell a top-end engine cleaner that i have been told works extremely well. I would assume BG would have a similar product. Please let us know what you find. Good luck.
