XV 1100 Exausht flange... is this normal?Hi guys. Long story short my bike is making a ticking sound and the Exausht flange that connects the Exausht to the from of the motor via two bolts seems to be not as tight as it should be. The bolts that connect the Exausht to the motor are showing quite a bit of thread. How ever my bike doesn't make the ticking sound until it gets hot. I'll include some pictures so you guys can see. It's kind of hard to explain. Any help would be much appreciated. I also included the links if you can't see the pics.
