Take them off and lube them with break pad grease before reinstalling them. Not the friction side... the caliper piston side. Brush caliper with soapy water after copious brake cleaner shower. Revisit all the bolts that hold the calipers to the frame.

You need to "bed in" the new brake pads to keep them from glazing over.........

HH sintered pads will always have a small wish sound, audible for some and not others. Helmet, speed, exhaust depending.

To get rid of it, run organic non-sintered pads. They’re softer and quieter, but dust more, wear faster, and don’t work as well, but they’re cheap and quiet.

i may just build my selective hearing from 11 years of marriage and apply it these brakes; they seem to be not as wishy hopeful in time maybe they will lessen..
