Default Brake Block off????

If you're talking about blocking off the parking brake, no, it isn't just for looks. Every Honda sport quad I've ever owned, and there have been several, I blocked off the parking brake, tossed the cable, and installed a CR style clutch lever/perch. I've never been able to adjust the parking brake where it would work at holding the quad without dragging when released. Adjust it to where it doesn't drag and it won't hold the quad. So, for $10 installed the block-off plate and for about $40 got the new clutch lever/perch. Much happier.

J&L has the kit for 25$ and it comes with the block off plate and a new clutch lever and perch![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I ahve to go with everyone else on this one. . .toss the brake and cable. . .get a $10 block off. . .everyone makes them. . and get a new perch and lever. . I don't think any company knows how to make them things work. . go into a showroom and try one. . I can almost guarantee it won't work. . .what a waste of our time huh???
