I think it's a "feature", not a "bug". Kinda like the 5th gear whine on the '07s...

5300 miles on my '08 and no squeal. My '07 Heritage squealed from day one until I installed Lyndall pads.

No squeak here on a 08 SG stock pads. My last RK squeaked all the time with the stock pads.

Yeah, Mine started squakin too, but I live on a half mile dirt road.One thing I have noticed is, guys that use a lot of detail sprays and waxes have squeky brakes.
Does the WD-40 trick really work?
