2 problems, fast idle and weird noise
my first problem is that my bike now idles at about 1.8-2k rpms ever since i almost tipped the bike over.
i was putting the bike on stands when i accidentally slipped and it went over on the right side, it go to about 45 degrees before i saved it and brought it back up so it didn't go all the way down but, some gas did drain out which i'm assuming is from gas splashing above the filler line
since then, it's been idling at 1.8-2k and not at 1.1-1.3k like it's supposed to. i've checked for sticky throttle or stuck cable but none of that
my second issue is that when i roll my front wheel, i hear continuous grinding as if the brakes were being lightly applied or a grinding of some sort. now when i ride the bike and i'm coasting to a stop or at low speed, usually less than 15, i hear a noise that sounds like uuurk......uuuurk....uuuurk until i either stop completely or speed up
what could cause this? i'm thinking maybe a nut was torqued too tight or not enough spacing between brakes and rotors of some sort?

Idle speed, easy adjustment. Turn **** at the left of this opening. CW increases RPM, CCW lowers RPM.
As for the noise in the brakes, unless they're dragging severly, it's not unusual to hear noise from he brakes. Remember that there is nothing that pulls the pads away from the disks. If it's really bad, then maybe you've got a calliper piston thats dirty and needs cleaning.
