At least I think it's the front end squeak. But when off the bike and engine running, there's no squeaking. However, when I sit down onto the bike with the engine running it squeaks. However, the squeaking becomes constant once I start moving. When I come to a stop, if I pull the front brake fairly hard and load up those forks on the stop, the squeaking stops. Once I stop however, and the bike settles, then it starts the intermittent squeaking. I can actually get the forks to squeak, very lightly when the engine is off and I push down hard onto the handlebars to compress the forks.

What do you guys think?

 

Year and model?

 

2000 Road Glide EFI

Should also say. Guy is from New York, who I bought the bike from last Saturday (of course the bike didn't squeak then!) and it sat a year before he moved to Texas.

 

When’s the last time the forks were rebuilt?

 

I'm not sure. Probably never. The bike has 30,000 miles on it.

 

Try this, Spray some lubricant on the rubber muffler hangers under the bags.

 

Could be your brakes , have you changed pads recently ? Used grease on the back of the pads and some on the pins , vibration can cause those areas to squeak / chatter . There is always a little pressure on the rotors from the pad , even off the brakes , so this could be your issue , worth a check .

 

Check the front motor mount.

 

Guy who sold it to me did put new front brakes on, so maybe that could be it. What do you suggest?
