Noise from front end

So I noticed something odd today.

 

I've been hearing a light popping noise coming from the wheel/fender when turning the bars left or right.

 

It sounds like the plastic fender is resonating a popping sound from the forks maybe.

 

If I hold the front wheel with my knees and try and turn the bars, I get the noise.

 

I don't have any steering issues other than a badly cupped flatspotted front tire.. I don't think it's head bearing..

 

Should I loosen the triples up and re-torque the bolts? Could something be tweaked from trailering?

Never mind, I'm a moron lol.

I didn't even check the fender mounting bolts. One was a tad loose - noise gone!
