weird ticking sound

i first noticed this today. it sorta sounds like a card in a bicycle spoke, yet deeper and more substantial that that, hope that makes sense. and it seems to be coming from the passenger front tire/fender area.

when i'm coasing i hear it. the faster i go, the faster it goes. yet under 15mph, it sorta happens on and off. but whatever speed i'm going at, if i'm on the gas it stops. then once i let my foot off the gas, the ticking is back.

i hi-lifted the front passenger side, spun the tire just to see if i could the tire rubbing on anything - nope. possibly relevent: i have the internal snorkel mod. i thought it could be the ABS pipe vibrating against the fender, but it seems pretty secure and it hasn't done that since the install so why would it start now. any ideas?
