Clicking noise on HD160
When I'm pushing down on the seat so that the rear shock compresses, I get a "clickin" noise which I so far has been able to locate to the area around the upper shock mount. The sound is not coming from the shock(tried with another shock) or the mounting hardware or the limbochips(changed them aswell). Anyone experienced something similar?

Yes, it was the seatpost or quick release. I took the quick release off the frame cleaned, greased, and put it back on. Also cleaned the seatpost and put a thin film of grease on it.

its hard to localize where the clicking is coming from. even though you think it is coming from shock area, since you eliminated potential causes of noise in there it might be coming from somewhere else as well. i had clicking noise before while climbing and was pretty sure it is the saddle. in the end it was stem plate not torqued properly to hold handlebar.

Instead of pressing down on the saddle try the top tube. It may rule out the saddle or seatpost areas as source of problem.
