Depending on the type of noise. It could be the trailing arm bushings since this is a common issue. This can make noise while accelerating and braking. Jack it up and try and move the rear wheel from left to right back and forth. if there is movement look at the lower bushings on the spindle. If this is the issue there is a nice bushing kit out there from Daizen. If it is not the issue try to post up as much info as you can if you cant figure it out.
