what problems did your back brake cause? There will be a bigger problem when your atv and you are wrapped around a tree beacuase it was wet and you couldent stop... Think smart bro especially with a fast machine like that..

With the engine running, turn gas valve off, run gas out of carbs.
Then put her staning on her @ss and she will be fine.......
