Default help with funky noise

i'm getting a constant noise which sounds like a rattle, and bit of a high pitch to itwhich is coming from right side engine area. it doesn't increase or decrease with engine rpms. i checked for any loose conditions [exhaust etc.] but don't find any. it is best heard with ear near right side engine and under bike right side.it's an 05 ultra with about 40k. any suggestions before i head to the dealer? Thanks in advance.

Check the baffles in the pipes if ones loose, it actually sounds like its coming from the engine area
