I hate any noise if I don't know what it is... actually, now that I think of it, I hate them even if I know what they are. That saddle creak of my B-17 is driving me insane. I tightened the clamps that lack onto the saddle rails, greased them and tried doing all sorts of stuff. I actually considered using duct tape on the rails to stop this creaking, I guess I'm pretty OCD about noises after all.
