All above are correct, but worth checking your front wheel bearings. Lots of them going out.

I can spin mine freely with one hand and that goes for all 4 bikes I've had.. I can also feel a little drag on the brake pads. I think you need to get yours checked out. I believe your calipers are hanging up or like has been already said, your wheel bearings.

Just called the dealer. Got someone I don't know. He said that it could be the clutch cable, since it runs thru the fairing.

Hoooo boy.

I'll talk to someone else when I go in. Most of the guys there are sharp. I have an appt on the 9th for some other work. They're going to check it then.
