slight knock possibly
well i've done oil change on the classic today its done 100 miles after full rebuild and noticed when on tick over if you touch the throttle very lightly theres about two very faint taps/knocks from engine then goes. i didnt notice it before oil change and filled the filter fully first (took a good twenty mins ) un plugged both crank and cam sensors and cranked engine to get good oil pressure ( 6 bar ) before plugging sensors back in and starting. read a few things on internet about could be it detting? and others say theres have made noise similar for years. whats peoples thoughts? is it normal or should i be pulling engine apart again? thanks.

bit of update had few mechanics cast their eye / ear over the engine and all said "i wouldn't be worried" but tonight ive just filtered the old oil to inspect and found tiny bits of filing in it :-( the noise hasn't got worse, should i leave it and see if it gets worse? thanks
