Default Road king engine noise

After a 50 mile ride the other day I restarted my 95 RK & it missed on 1 cylinder for a few seconds then cleared up but I have a pecking noise now ?? Checked for lifter collasping but they seem ok, sure sounds like valve train noise ? This bike had Screaming eagle heads-cam etc installed before I bouught it several years ago, the pushrods are adjustable but they seem ok ? Any thoughts ? The bike runs fine but this noise troubles me !!!

It's alright you posted here, this section is the brains of the outfit anyway. As far as your noise goes....I have no idea.
