Ok update so far
Bike is at dealer-the ticking stops when it warms up so the dealer kept it overnight and will listen to it when cold-they are thinking cam chain but not sure-wanna here it when cold-not gonna charge me to keep over night and listen to it-gonna call me and let me know tomorrow.

Although I called another dealer and told them what its doing and they said its normal, bike sits on side stand and all oil to one side-ticks until oil is through entire system and after few minutes it stops.

They also said that the bike needs to sit for about 15 minutes to warm up before riding it-lol-sounds like BS to me

Wait and see
