So I’m riding it, if anything the knock is getting louder and more pronounced. Seems to me it’s coming from the top of the front cylinder in the 2500 to 3000 RPM range.
Its the rocker arm/spring hitting the rocker box. Its a known issue. When they replaced the cylinders on my buddy's '07 SE Ultra, they ground our some of the inside of the rocker lid where the rocker arm/spring was hitting it. Quieted down the top end 80%.

Has your rear cylinder started leaking oil yet?

Moco is having fits with the 110" in the bagger.
