That's a good question Jim.Without going out and trying it again I would say
engine maybe and road no. When applying additional throttle going up a hill
the tick is very evident. I cannot swear that it responds exactly to engine
RPM, but to some degree I think it must. In my hill example, once the
throttle is decreased a bit the tick goes away.
