doesn't sound too bad, I use to think my motor made a lot of nose coming from RB's and 1/2J's. But I noticed Honda motors are just kind of nosy like that.

That's what everyone keeps saying . I just wish someone with a healthy motor would take te time to see if their engine makes this light tapping (more like a card in bicycle spokes) when driving close to other cars walls or sidewalks.

Mine makes a ticking noise similar to what you've been describing (I can't really hear anything other than the wind noise in your video, sorry), and I just adjusted my valves not to long ago.

I'd say if your car is running fine then you car is probably fine.

So is this a drive-tain suspension issue not an engine issue? If it was engine youd be able to hea it clear as day with the hood up and it running at idle.
