Or something to be talking to the dealer about?

Cheers and thanks
Do the forks squeak/groan when you pump them with the front brake on?Do they make a noise if you turn the bars lock to lock?Are you sure its the forks making the noise as you pull away?Could be the brakes or even the "braying donkey" sound from the clutch.
I guess the bike is still under warranty?
