when you say front brake drag what exactly are u reffering too
cause i had this experience last night. Just got back from school for the summer and i live in a pretty secluded place so its quite quiet especially at night. So i went out and was walking my bike into the garage, i didnt start it up cause it was only a couple feet, and i hear scraping in the front brake. after a little playing with the level and listening i concluded that its definately the front brake making that sound while its not engauged at all. I was about to post a new thread, but i saw this and was hoping this is what your talking about as well..... If so this could contribute to the slightly lower mpg than everyone else and with the toughness to push the bike in neutral [old battery died about a mile from my house and had to push it home a couple months ago, and it was HARD.... plus it was like 1 week into ever having a bike so the weight of the bike scared me]
