Subject: Tl 1000 (1997) Ticking

My 97 TLS had his idler gear bushings replaced at 12000 miles.
Now at 22000 miles I have a rattle in the front cilinder when I start the bike (as if excesive valve play) loud mettalic noise.
If I tip the bike over to the right and rev to 4000 rpm the noise suddenly stops (as if oil arrives). The noise is gone after that.
What can this be?? Idler bushing again? Decompression mechanism?? Any input welcome.
