I beleive that the only atv's that have the mechanical foot brake are those with a split brake system, one handle for front and one for the back, of course the foot brake would only work the rear brakes. You've got a good machine, with it being a manual it's almost bullet proof in water.

I took it out to Harlan Ky last weekend and it did great! As a matter of fact it went through a hole that my buddys brand new Polaris got stuck in! haha
The manual foot shifter took some getting used to but it works fine.
The only problem is the fan motor may be shorting out or something is up with the wiring because it kept popping the fuse and would tend to overheat sometimes.
