Does anyone know how to adjust the parking brake? When I engage it, it does absolutely nothing. Other times, I engage it and it will actually work....

 

There is a bolt with a nut on your rear caliber. you have to loosen the nut then tighten the bolt. make sure it works but if you over tighten it the rear brakes might be locked up. so just keep adjusting it till its perfect.

 

Is that adjustment for the parking brake ONLY or the rear brakes in general?

 

The bolt and nut are for the parking brake only. Speaking of brakes my 06 700 has really SQUEEKY back brakes. is this due to alot of dirt in between the pads and disk or do I need new pads allready??

 

I had the same problem with my rear brakes... turned out my rotor was warped a bit....

 

I would just take it off.

 

Best thing to do is just take it off and get a block off plate. I kept trying over and over to get mine working again and it never was like it was new. The Rapter has the worst parking brake setup ever. If you do take it off there is a parking brake safety switch that you need to remove as well. I took mine off so long ago that I cant really remember how you do it but if you do a search here there is plenty of info about it. Only downside I have found is that my quad wants to move a bit when on the trailer and I have heard that you shouldnt trailer them in gear so I just strap it really tight and use several straps.
