Default Engine tick

I was wondering if anybody has ever heard of this. I have a slightly used 05 Fat Boy, approximately 800 miles.After this winter when I first start it up I hearwhat sounds like an engine tick. When I first start it the tick sounds intermitttently about once every few seconds. After engine warms for about 10 minutes it goes away. Any ideas.
