Sportsters are noisey beasts, are you new to Harleys if so it is most likely normal. I know when I first got mine it sounded to me like it was coming apart. I changed to Mobile 1 synthetic oil and it quited up.
SOURCE: How to adjust the throttle cable on an 2002 HD
Look under that throttle grip. You will see a pair of cables comming out. The one towards the front of the bike is the pull cable (opens the throttle) the other is the push cable (closes the throttle in the event the spring fails the return the throttle to the closed position) You will be adjusting the pull cable towards the front of the bike. You will see 2 nuts there. a long one and a short one. I think its a 10 mm wrench in size. Either way find a pair of wrneches that fits those 2 nuts and losen them turning the upper nut counter clock wise and the lower clockwise. Now you will be able hold the cable to spin the large nut to tighten the cable. as you do that periodically wiggle the throttle to check tightness. DO NOT overtighten or the bike will idle up when you turn the handlebars. A little bit of play 1/8" to 1/4" is normal free play. Its a good idea to start the bike and idle it while turniking the handlebars back and forth to make sure you have not gone to far. Once you have got it where you want then tighten the little lock nut in place and you are done.

SOURCE: Is there a larger gas tank I can put on my 2002
some of the aftermarket manufacturers make what they call a "king tank". I don't know how much more fuel that will give you if any at all. that's the biggest tank a Sporty that I've seen. Now, I have seen a set of Fat Boy tanks on a Sportster and they look good. Of course, this would require that you fabricate a custom mount for the tanks.
