Watson's. Love that place. Did you used to live out here?

As for the ticking, look at the rotor mount bolts and see if there is any wear on the heads, which would indicate it's rubbing on something.

I'll look more closely at them, thanks.

Also, a good way to raise the front end is use a car jack to raise the bike by pressing up on the frame just below the engine and to the left of the exhaust. Then slide a jack holder under each of the peg mounts and the bike will be rock steady.

That's pretty much what I ended up doing. The ticking definitely comes from the hub/brake area, and once I could spin the wheel, I noticed the ticking was more frequent than being timed with the rpms of the wheel. It hasn't gotten more frequent than it was, I just have a better sense of it now. I haven't posted an update in the Troubleshooting section because I don't have much to report on yet.
