I will check the tightness of the headset. Rotor is turning the correct way and the bolts are torqued. Rotor is true. Caliper is bolted down properly. Wheel is perfect in the dropouts. The pads are contacting the rotor properly.
Last trip to LBS netted big improvements however I would like it to be better.
Tomorrow I plan to clean the heck out of the rotor with brake cleaner. It's beautiful in MN today so it looks like a boating day, not a biking day. Happy Fathers Day to all dads.
Dynaryder and ColdCase, THANK YOU for your input.

If all of these things check out,it's possible you have contaminated pads/rotors,but it would have to be bad to cause this level of feedback. It is also possible something is amiss in the headset(bad bearings,missing parts) or even in the fork itself.
