Default Brakes dragging?

Hey guys i bought my 02 f4i a few weeks ago and i have been going over it and doing some minor mechanical PM to it. Today i had it out to lube the chain and when i was going to push it back into the garage i notice a slight rubbing noise and it seems like it was coming from the front brake pad. So i took a closer look and it looks like the pad is dragging. So i looked at the rear one it looks like its dragging too. So i was wondering if the brakes just ride really close to the disc or are the rubbing? And if so any suggestions on why they would be dragging.

Its normal. You should always have a slight drag with disc brakes from what I understand. It happens on your cars too, you just dont hear it.
