Valkyrie and Valve Noise

I have a 97 Valkyrie with 26,000 miles. I had my carbs synch´d and valves adjusted last summer. I get a lot of valve noise in 2nd gear at about 3000 RPM. Do otheres experience valve noise on there Valks?? I did recently switch oil from Honda GN4 (petro based) to Castrol Syntec (Petro and Synthetic blend). At highway speeds the noise lessens but I think it is just drowned out by road noise.
