Start to hear noise from front suspension (squeaking) when riding over bumps and railroad crossing. Not sure where the noise is coming from exactly. Same when standing still and pushing fork down. Anybody else having this issue. Bike has less than 2500 miles...and can't recall ever hearing this noise.
 
I had that issue..was driving me crazy......all it was was front fender was loose...even pushing down on forks made a creaking noise..
I hope that's the only issue ...I was told on some models there was not the correct amount of fork oil.....just a fyi there..

Thanks Mike, will check on fender.
 
Checked on fenders, not sure how you would find out about the oil situation, without taking the forks off. Suspension seem to work fine in the front, without oil I guess you would notice it? I looked into all the cables and lines coming from the handlebar controls, no noise found here. I tightened the two screws around metal penal around the fuel cap...since than no real squeaky sound, other than the occasional heat shield squeaking on the exhaust. Keep y'all posted, I have a feeling the noise will be back.
