Clicky forks, the G & J models do it, Disturbing but normal
.
As for the brakes rubbing, thats normal as well but you don't say how old the bike is. We have the roads gritted in the UK in the winter and I just split and refurbished the tokico 6 pots on my mates ZX9R (c1) a couple of nights ago. The salt gets behind the outer dust seal in its groove and creates a lump of furry oxide which needs scraping out. This pushes the seal against the pistons and makes them stick, which in turn causes the pads to rub against the rotors. The seals as long as they are not perished can be cleaned carefully and put back with a smear of rubber grease.
The only problem is I have to do mine now as my mates feel so progressive [8D].
