Speed Triple Engine Rattle

Have you had her from new?
Full service history?
Is it cam chain noise?
How many miles?
A mate had a cam chain noise so changed it to find the noise was still there lots of head scratching and a call to a very knowledgeable Triumph mechanic who said it was the little end of the middle cylinder, he was right!
That was on a 1997 bike but not high miles I don't know if triumph modified the engine since to stop this problem
Could be simple but when all other options have been explored think little end

 

Like I said mate worse case scenario could be something stupid like a loose washer spinning on a bolt I had a z1000 with a horrible rattle and it was the glass in the bar end mirror spinning when you reved the engine!

 

At 10,000 miles you are getting close to needing the valve shims checked. Might just be worth having it done anyway, if only to reduce the cost of the 12,000 mile service. Having said that, the shim gaps tend to reduce unlike tappet gaps which get wider, and therefore noisier, with use.

 

I had an odd noise that sounded like the engine was spitting, it turned out to be some small hoses under the tank that had perished and cracked, quick and cheap to fix by my dealer so if it sounds like that you may be in luck
