Brakes rubbing
Just wondering if anyone has the same "problem" i say that because i doubt its a big deal. When the bike is off and im just pushing it in our out of the shed, etc. the front disc makes noise as the brake pad is rubbing it. I dont know if this is normal to a certain degree or if i should get the dealer to look at it?

There's no rebound spring on the pads. They are free to rub the rotor if you don't press the lever to squeeze them to it.

This is normal with all disk brakes whether they are on a motorcycle or a car. The pads are always slightly in contact with the rotors until you apply pressure to them for braking.
