+1 on Peterbarons reply. With the bike on the center stand, have someone hold the rear end of the bike down, so that the front wheel is off the ground. Give the front wheel a good hard spin by hand. The wheel should spin somewhere around 5 to six full revolutions with just slight "SHHHHHH" sound of the brake pads against the rotors. The rear wheel is dragging the chain so you will not get nearly as many revolutions as the front, but you will be able to tell if it is dragging or not. The other stuff is probably primarily just getting used to the bike.
