my front brake on my 250x is making an odd clicking sound. and it does not spin as well as the other side. any idea what the problem could be?

You need to pull off the wheel and look around.

If the brakes are not worn out or something is stuck in there (sticks dirt sand etc) then roll the wheel real slow and see if you feel what your hearing. If you do theres a good chance you need some bearings.

yes! take the brake assembly off and spin the wheel , if it is still a problem the brakes are not the culprit! likely suspect bearings. i had a sound like that but it was from hiting a huge pointy rock that put a dent in my wheel from the inside of the wheel outward that hit my caliper!!
