I am no stranger to honda atvs and everyone that owns one knows that the front brakes go to crap sooner or later. Usually sooner than later though. I have owned a Rubicon since december and the front brakes are already goin to crap.. You have to squeeze the handle multiple times to get them to activate. This just seemed strange to me that the brakes are failing so soon. I plan to take it to my dealer soon. My warranty ends in may. Has anyone else experienced this problem??

It shouldnt be any parts in the brakes. Do you ride in water? Usually water and mud are the leading causes of drum brake failure. Mine went out after a good 200 miles of pure mud and water. All you have to do is take them apart and service them. I have instructions to do so on my website.

 

You have already tightened the lines with the wing-nuts in the back of the bike, eh?

 

Those are for the rear.
