Had my old rear brake set up off my Hayabusa laying around & thought I might as well make a parking/pinion brake. Had Mud make me a disc & found handle at AAA, its off a Mini Cooper.
Hayabusa's rear set up:
Mini's handle:
Mounted, disengaged position:
Engaged position:
Snazzy little cover:
Disc installed:
Caliper in place & SS line ran:
altoid quick ? about this e brake handle .is this a self contained unit like in the engaged picture .
Fo shizzle
If by "self contained" you mean actuator (handle), reservoir, cylinder (all in one compact unit) & caliper, yes. It consists of the parts I listed I just had to fab a small piece of steel & weld it to handles base to attach cylinder & cut the hose some. Jason at Alliance made my brake line.

do u remember what year mini cooper im gonna try to fit one of these on my transfer case . thanks dont mean to highjack your thread and when you gonna strat on your juggy project you mentioned and the first of this thread .thanks again 4 the info
Handle was from an '06 or '07 Mini, iirc (Mini is cable operated from factory). Now your also gonna need the rear brake set up from a crotch rocket (I used the one off my Suzuki Hayabusa).
Probably start Juggy (Dreadnought) in November (maybe a Ratrod bike too, hmmm???).

Hmmm... its tall enough to have a shot at tank trap if he airs way down and has locked the axles (they were open last I saw it I believe)
What is this "tank trap" you speak of sir? Lockers front & rear (I had them in for last Muddy playground throwdown), not sure if airing down will help too much for the ole XZL's.

A very gnarly trail at the Flats, attempting to describe it would really not do it any justice...
Theres a massive mudhole, and immediately after that, is a massive rockledge, and thats just a short section of it.
As for airing down, dunno, can't hurt to try.
Didn't know ya got both lockers in, and I had to leave just a few minutes after feeding your dog a burger so I missed the action.
