Parking brake??

Is there any way to disable the built in parking bake on the RZR. This is the one thing I really do not like about this vehicle. Here in TN There are alot of hills and when I put it in Park sometimes when shifting back into gear you have to really force it back into gear. Other than that I guess there would have to be a manual parking brake installed.

Brian, How about a photo? If it's nicer than the junker I purchased I'd like to buy it.

Re: Parking brake??

If you don't like the Park position then don't use it

I put in a manual line lock to hold the rear brakes on but if I had to do it over I'd just make a lever to hold the brake pedal down. Way easier than installing a line lock. The line lock works great but it's a big PITA to adapt the line fittings to the small inverted flare fittings Polaris used.

That seems like a great Idea, didnt even think about it, I might make something up this weekend.

Thanks.
