slight squealing noise

I have a 2007 Ultra Classic with 60,000 miles. I noticed when I start the bike and take off I hear a slight squeal when I let off the throttle or shift. This squeal continues each time I let off throttle and shift until the bike heats up. Once the bike heats up it goes away. Sounds like it could be coming from the front end.

Anyone have any ideas what that means?

It could mean the belt is too tight.

My Heritage did the exact same thing. It also sounded like it was coming from the front wheel. In my case the belt was a little loose and it would chirp everytime I came of the throttle.
