Any pointers in installing foot brake on DRR? Won't have instructions, but looks like a bracket will need to be welded to mount hardware. Also, are you guys just using the original (long) brake line and just wrapping it around the other side? Thanks!

If this is the DRR foot brake assembly, there is no welding needed as that would make it illegal for ATVA production racing rules.
Remove the swingarm bolt and this assembly will be mounted between the bolt and the frame. Reinsert the bolt and snug down the nut. Rotate the assembly to get the foot brake lever to the same height as the foot cleat, I designed it to be able to be twisted some. Drill the 8mm hole above the swingarm bolt and insert bolt and nut, to stop plate from rotating. That's it.

You can use the stock hand brake hose, but can also go to an auto parts store and get a new brake line built or have your hand brake line shortend with a new banjo fitting.
