That's at least as good a guess as mine. I just fix on the one because it happened to me.

Opon investigation, I found the intake valve tappet gap was way to large. I adjusted to within spec, and after a half hour of riding the noise was back, the bike would stall at idle, and the gap was again to large. I'm about out of adjustment on the adjuster screw.
