Bearcat1, you may want to PM Van (Vanamal) and Marty (MoFo 110) on this forum. They've both done similar, EXTENSIVE mods to their motors, and understand they run like well-oiled sewing machines... with loud exhausts. To the tune of $5000, give or take a thousand.
I had new cams and lifters installed in mine (2012 SG), and it didn't improve any of the noises. Now doing a little valve work, changed the primary tensioner, changed the compensator, boring the cylinders, and getting new pistons. I'm hoping it's piston slap that's making most of the noise. Don't really know if any of this will help, but the piston domes and heads/valves looked a lot worse than I expected for a motor with only 12,000 miles on it. Anyway, I'm really enjoying working on the bike. Not nearly as enjoyable as riding, though. The only other thing that I've heard really helps would be to weld and true the crank shaft.
Good luck, hope you find a reasonable answer.
