I posted this over in the 'General' section too, but figured i'd post it here and see what responses I would get.
I have a 1997 Fatboy, 31,000 miles. This just started last night. After it has been running and you turn it off, you hear a kind of "rubber-meets-rubber" kind of squeek. Maybe it ISN'T rubber at all, but that's what it sounds like. So, anyone have any clue as to what this squeeking sound could be?
hmmm was '97's EFI?
If so, if i havent started mine in a while and I dont hold the start long enough it makes a sort of squeek every once in a while. never had a problem so im not worried about it
