Probably fuel injector noise. There was a noticably louder ticking from my motor before it blew, so make sure you note whether it is a steady light tapping at certain rpms- it can be fairly loud- or a harder tapping that is constant throughout the rev range and louder near redline.

How many miles on your bike?

Go soothingly on the grease mud, as there lurks the skid demon.

Check the exhaust manifold bolts. If one or two are loose it'll make a ticking noise.

Adjust your valves.

9k miles is nothing for a Triumph. It is just barely broken in!
