Do the valve adjustment yourself, there are plenty of write ups on it, and it's a fairly easy task.

the reason why you dont hear it at higher rpm is because oil reaches the area, you need to adjust the valves, take it to a shop if you are a newb with honda.

actually, not just a shop, call around and ask questions of how many valve adjustments the tech has done, going by routine for even a good mechanic that hasnt done it can lead to noisy adjustment, and he will blame it on your motor and such.

life is just not fair,
