Default engine noise

If I park my 07 Road King for an hour or so after a 200 mile ride the engine makes a chattering sound as i drive off. It sounds like lifters. The bike has 36000 Km.(about 20000 miles). After i reach cruising speed the engine is quiet again. Anyone have experience with this?

Possible the lifters are bleeding down.
