Default Springer Squeak
My 96 Fxstsb hasn't gotten a lot of road time lately and has a squeak in the springs or rubber dampners on the front end.

Anyone have a recommendation on the material/process to use to eliminate this noise?

I have what sounds to be a squeek in the front end but its just the shock on the front of the springs.
