Sound like your fork head bearing, Bring it to a mechanic quick as if the bearing fails turning will be bloody hard, bloody being the word here, it's not expensive, cand be done in less then a couple of hours, bearing cost only a couple of pounds, labour, ask first how many hours and how much per hour.

i'd say,there's a couple of things it could be.juddering would point to a warped,or uneven disc/s.also,there's an outside chance that the pistons could be partially seized in the brake callipers,

Radvalve gave some good possibilities.
Here are some more: low tire pressure, worn tire - the tread can be "cupped" from heavy braking.

DONT click on that link...
your discs/rotos are shafted...some are floating discs that do move slightly,others are solid...not sure about the srad...its deff a shafted disc,nothing else causes the front end to shake when breaking.

Head Shake=slow brake piston movement, fork imbalance, bad wheel bearings, sticky axle, thick brake fluid, so on and so forth.
