I have a 09 Ninja 250. Today was a warm afternoon, but when I am coming o a stop, during 10km to 0 km, I notice the bike front wheel will squeal, small noise but noticeable everytime coming from stop. Theres no noise at speed , or maybe it was cover by my stupidly loud exhaust...I looked at the front pads, they are still at 40% but looks dry...maybe a brake service helps? Do you service brakes on bikes? :S Could this be something else....havnt rode thele in 1 week due to the cold weather... rode it this afternoon and this situation happens.
 
It's cause the bike sat. Give the breaks a good squeeze, pump them, warm up the disk and it should be fine.
 
Also the still squeal when travelling around 10km witthout using brakes...no squeal at speee over 10tkm, braking or not. Thanks
 
Pads being worn down to their limit can cause this symptom. Have you checked?

If the pads are newish, then apply copper grease between the back of the pads and piston faces.
