Ticking in the motor every now and then, just kind of random. What is it? How do I fix it? How much is it? Is it difficult to do? Thanks

First : Which model of atv??

Maybe it's just a valves adjustment that you need.

If it's a 400ex,all 400ex thick a little but if it's loud,adjust your valves.

sometimes its the decompression release, but ticking is normal on a 400. 1 in 3 ticks i heard
