Got a 01 f4i stunt.. need help.. hand brake.. electrical

Just picked it up today, first issue im having is that it has a fti rear brake setup (4 piston) and i noticed the rear axle?? bolts were loose .. The long bolt that runs thru the rear wheel. So i tightened up and noticed the rear brake is now rubbing pretty bad the entire time. I noticed this after i went up the road and i kept slowing down very fast. Smelled brakes .. sure enuff rear brake was about locked up.. Loosened it back up and all is fine. Anyone have this happen? Or have install instructions? Maybe missing washer??Just lemme know what yas think, im gonna play with it tommarow after i get the cage and fairings off to check over some wiring. Which is my next issue.. battery is reading 12.4V on my meter.. but sure is acting like it has barley any. Lights are dim and wont start. The fun of electrical issues. If you have had anything like that happen let me know what you did. THANKS FELLAS

use contact cleaner to clean all the connectors... and you can check voltage drops thru them also.

Yea another note to the electrical isuue, The bike seemed fine when i first picked it up. Started right up.. Rode about 5 miles to gas station. Fired up again.. 2 miles later (when i noticed the brake was sticking) pulled over, loosened the bolt and went to start and nothing.. SO had to push start it. Then it stalled once and fired right back up. Got home about 10 miles later. shut it off, started back up one time. Then nothin. Hopefully just bad connections.

check the plugs to make sure they are tight before you drive yourself crazy over all the electrical b/s it could be

check the connections on the battery itself, and see what your charging voltage is with the bike runnin also
