Clicking noise with Black Ops fork?

[andino]

Does anyone have the Black Ops 29er fork? i got mine today and threw it on and when i go over bumps and such it makes some clicking noises. any ideas what could be causing the noise? i'll post up some pictures when i get back from class tomorrow.
Thanks,
Andy

Did you buy this new or used?? I have heard of Carbon forks making a bit of noise where the crown meetas the legs... it can also be you ft brake line beating against the carbon tubes??

star nut is tight enough? I used to have a prob with mine getting loose and had the "clicking/clunking" noise over any kind of bump. simple fix though......simple to find out as well.....either rock your bike fwd-bkwd with the front brake on or hold the bike and try moving the fork looking/feeling/listening for play. Just my thoughts

is it air assisted? if so is the correct air pressure in it? does it top out with too heavy of a spring rate?if it creeks, it kood bee the fork inside where it mates to the crown. hope that helped.
