When your front brakes start to squeal a bit every time you use them, then they are broken in !
That minor scraping noise is not ABnormal; it might go away and it might not.
I am about 180 and have my pre-load set on 2. 3 is probably OK for just you on board. You can play with it but probably won't notice much (if any) difference in "normal" riding. A higher pre-load prevents sagging and bottoming out on big bumps. Extra passenger or gear, probably should bump it up a notch (or 2 depending on the extra load). If that happens very often, you probably want to just leave it there.
You have a slight mfg. defect in the signal stalk. I think I have one front AND one rear like that. If it REALLY bothers you that much, order a new one. :roll:
Other things to do: Check oil and tire pressure often......each day or each ride, which ever is least frequent.
