Ticking Noise = Valve Adjustment

Ticking Noise = Valve Adjustment
I have a ticking noise coming from my Foreman and I looked threw some of the older threads and nothing went in too deep on how I would go about adjusting the valves to correct this issue. Do I adjust it after the quad warms up or do I do it when she is dead cold?
And is this really that big of a problem?

Not sure how the Foreman work but on my 250X, I loosten a locknut on a screw that goes through the rocker arm. The bottom of the screw meets the top of the valve stem. I rotate the crank so that the valves are both closed, then screw the screw toward the valve stem until there is .004" clearance, measured with a feeler gage. Then tighten the locknut up without moving the screw. It's an easy 30 minute job for me. Even on your Foreman, I'm sure there is no "tighteneing of the valve itself". It's a DIY job no problem.
