Yes it will apply pressure to the rear brakes and if done correctly, the turning brake levers should feel solid when the brake lock is applied. Just apply your brake pedal hard today, do the turn brakes lock up?

I guess that's what it's doing, when I pull on one of the levers while the brake pedal is depressed, it sort of pushes the pedal back up

something like this would tell a story.... they gotta work...

this is only $150 if you have cables for the fuel and clutch.

Probably more work than it's worth to switch

I had to take off the back seat to get to the fill plug for the trans. What do you guys think about this frame modification? The guy who had it before put this in. I don't know if he moved the front seats forward or not, but if he didn't, there was definitely some empty space behind them. It's metal road sign bent just-so, with foam glued to the front. Looks like he moved this bar back to make room, but then again it looks like the front seats are too far back for it to have been there before.
