You waited like 200k?
The squeak is just lube needed on the fork.
The TOB starts as a woosh, then progresses to a light squeal and then get's worse until it sounds like a banshee screaming. Mine only did it on cold starts and it would be fine once warmed up. Even on cold start I could make it come and go by pushing the clutch in. At it's worse I could even play a little song. Then it stopped making noise at all. That was not a good sign.
