your p-brake is maybe 3 lbs TOTAL, with all componenets. I took mine off the other day. very simple. only a couple bolts. go on ebay and search for a p-brake block off plate... $10.

what he said

and maybe get a new clutch perch and lever for another $20-30,,,,well worth it

should take about 10 minutes start to finish,,,,and will eliminate a lot of useless crap imo

Make life easy and get one with an O-Ring. You can buy billet ones from Rocky Mountain for like 8 bucks.
