i wouldnt have a clue, but could it be the bushes inside the shocker ??
are u sure its the suspension ? your chain might be loose and hitting on the swingarm

hey yeah, thats a good point, ill check it out i just got scared because my friend said that his suspension started clicking when it was rooted and it was the dogbone, and he had to replace it all and it cost him like six or seven hundred bucks.

i have to replace all thge bearings and bushes and all that shit inside the swingarm cos the ****head who owned it before me let it get so loos e that the bushes have a 2cm hole the whole length of them and when they pulled the bearings out little bits of metal and shit came out.
