Default squeaking from the front wheel

I have a 2007 Street Glide that I bought used,and has Harley after market front wheel and rotors. I am getting a squeaking sound at a specific area during the rotation of the wheel. The the dealer said this is normal with the 07 Street Glides. Just wondering if anyone else is having the same problems?
