when i bought my 400 the parking-break was already block off, it doesn't work, but i want it to, how do i remove the block-off???

i don't even see what the point in the block off is, why would you not want to have a parking break, it is VERY annoying when i need to stop on a hill, and there is nothing to stop it from rolling

trust me you dont want a parking brake all it does is eat brake pads. when i forst got my quad a set of rear brakes would last about 15 hr of riding but since i got my block off in april im still on the same pads.

i'm getting a pb block off mainly just to get rid of the mumbo jumbo to make it lighter, easier to clean and work on. I'm not to worried about not having it because the thing never works anyways unless I want to adjust it every ride. And if its brake pads i'm not to worried because I never really get on my rear brakes like I do on the fronts.
