Re: hand brake???

on a bigger dirtbike / supermoto you can get sick dual caliper set up from full throttle.
the adapters suck, its more like 2 finger no lock up or full hand and still stuggeing. i hear the full throttle for the crF 250 & 450, and wr250x should be single finger lock up!!!!!! since there using a huge 2nd rear caliper. similar idea to the 4 piston hohey dual caliper set up.

Re: hand brake???

drum brakes feel shitty, always will, for the honda 50's i know there's a mod where you grind down a part of the brake shoes and it makes it better, i don't know if it applies to yours but look into it

Re: hand brake???

maybe the cable is stretching? it'll lock up with foot brake.

Yes really , cuz you no nothing about stunting , yes you need a better handbrake . want me to teach you how to ride the bike too ?



But on a serious note .
The swingarm looks square with a little fab. work you can make a perch .
After that get a handbrake cable for a atc200 "it's oversized & long enough" .
Next step if you can't lock the rear wheel up is get a msr e-z-pull
After that sand the inside of your hub & lightly sand the brake pads


case closed... bring on the next one .
