Talking Z400 sticky brakes

Does anybody know what would make the rear brakes stick down when applied? I have to pull it back up with my foot. Thanks Fred

Check your "parking brake" cable at the clutch lever. Mine froze up (from never using it) So i just did what 99.9% of everyone does, replace it with a block off plate. Can't say I miss the parking brake, less stuff to worry about.

Also try greasing the floater pins if it turns out not to be the parking brake...

Look at this:

Good luck and let us know if you get it fixed.
