Default SQUEAKING SOUND

I'm getting a constant sqeaking sound during operation of my 07 Deuce. Sometimes it sounds like its coming from the front end. Sometimes it sounds like its coming fromthe middle of the left side of the bike. I've checked the front forks, the headlight, the front brakes, the belt drive. Any suggestions. The squeak is driving me crazy.

Try squeezing down on the brake with a small amount of pressure as your coasting. Mine will squeek occassionaly. I'm going to change to the Lyndall Z pads soon.
