'Click' coming from front forks

[Pimpson]

Sorry for my dumbness, what is the lower pinch bolt? The pinch bolt is the bolt that runs through the centre of the wheel right?

It's the bolt that pinches the fork onto the axle. Looking at the front of the bike, it will be on the bottom of the left fork, facing towards you. Mine sounded EXACTLY like yours.....click when going up driveway, no noise from the brakes, etc.

Well lower pinch bolt was tight. The noise didn't happen so much yesterday but I took it to the garage after work anyway and they showed me a neat trick to pull the bike up onto the sidestand to lift the front, but there was no movement at all, and they couldn't see anything else wrong. Today I did not hear it at all, could the streering mount have settled again? Anyway I will try to forget it until it comes back.

Well I found the problem. It was the radiator, the bolt at the top was sheared in two, it must have happened whilst doing a very bumpy road last Sunday, the vibrations must have been enough to snap it. Don't know how I missed it when inspecting the front before. So now the rad is held on with cable ties till I get to the shop tonight to buy a new bolt.

Thanks for the update. I'll add another thing to check for on my bike.
