It's actually the rockers that are tapping against the valve tip, most likely due to excessive slack. They just need a good adjusting.

adjust the valves and the cam chain, or get some earplugs

If the gap is too large, you will hear it and the valves won't open as much as they should. less gas getting into the cylinder, less exhaust leaving until the point to just doesn't want to run
