Just about 2 weeks ago I got my first bike since the 70cc Honda dirtbike I rode as a teen. This 2006 only had 700 miles on it. Since it had been sitting in a garage for over a year, I had it towed to a local shop, the fuel tank drained, carb cleaned and the oil changed.

It feels like it is running pretty good to me, although I have nothing to compare it to, obviously. But I do have a couple questions.

Front wheel sound
I turn off the bike and push a couple yards it when I stow it behind my cottage. When I do, the front wheel makes a sound. Can't really describe it. Kind of like a slight metal rubbing? I just wonder if this is normal--coming from the world of bicycles, I'm just to not hearing anything when I push a bike LOL. Perhaps the disc brakes produce a sound?

Oil smell
There is no leaking oil, as far as I can see; and there is no smoke from the exhaust to the best of my knowledge. But when I finish my approximately 20 minute commute, I can smell a slight burning oil smell. Not sure if that is normal.

Compressed air
I noticed, looking through the downloaded manual, that a number of routine repairs--air filter cleaning, carb cleaning--requires compressed air. As a lifelong renter, and at least for the time being lacking a garage (just a small shed), I don't have a ton of tools and certainly not a compressor. Assuming this is something necessary for basic maintenance, does anyone have a suggestion for the smallest compressor that can do the job?
