So the front forks on the 05 America are squeaking.
Everytime they are compressed they squeak.
Would this be a sign that they need oil, or...?

Yeah, that's probably all it is... just getting a little dry where the seal rubs on the shroud. Dielectric grease would be my way of dealing with the squeak cause it's easy on rubber and plastics.
Live to love, love to live.

Thanks Guys!
I've had the bike less than 2 weeks and have racked up about 900 miles so far. The squeaking is annoying as can be around town.
I'll squirt some lube under the shrouds.
Thanks!
