Developed a possible issue this week with the front end of my bike.  When I apply my front brake after a few seconds I am hearing a sight vibration noise.  I am not feeling any feedback through the bars I just hear it.  To me it sounds like the front fender vibrating but I checked all the fender fasteners and every other nut and bolt on the front end I can  find and everything seems tight.  Put the bike up on the jack and the front tire and front end do not seem loose.  My front pads are getting a bit worn but there is still some life in them.  The pads are wearing even and there are not grooves or uneven wear on the front rotor.  So what else should I be checking or is it time for stop at the local dealer?  Should I just replace the pads and grease the caliper first?

Do some pads have some type of chirp built into them telling you it's almost time to change them ... I have had cars back in the day that but never heard of that feature on a bike.
