I have a raptor 660 and i can hear a little ticking coming from the very top of the motor and i was wondering if that is normal or is something needing adjustment

Usually a noticable loud ticking means you need a valve adjustment. If its quiet its notmal valve operation.

You need a feeler gauge and might need shims. Prolly a 6 of 10 difficulty. Not sure on the specs.
