I bought the bike mentioned above about a month ago. It is in very good condition, with only 1200 miles on it. It has been sitting for two years. I brought it home, drove it around a bit, about a mile, and noticed the left front brake was hanging up, not releasing. I parked it in the shed. Ill get to it later, is what I thought. Anyway, yesterday I tried to get it out, and the front wheels are brake locked. They just want to slide. I just ordered a manual for it, but could somebody point me in the right direction as to what to look at first. Thanks in advance, I am no expert at working on anything that small.

Welcome to QC !!! Am I reading this right ? Your 81 years young ? If so RIGHT ON !!!! :bow:Only Way to figure out why its lockin up is jack up the front end and spin the wheels and see whats going on ! you may have a problem with you caliber or master cylinder! Given its age and its been sittin for a couple of years !!

      Hello All
      I'm kinda new to ATVs. I just bought a 1987 Suzuki quad runner 230 Dual Range. I'm having a problem finding info on it. It's very clean, only 2.800 miles. The front wheels are only 30 in.center to center. I was thinking about adding wheel spacers to give it more stability. I realize the added stress on ball joints and bearings. I'm wondering if there are any other concerns? Any input is greatly appreciated!

      on my left brake handle (for the rear brakes) there's two wires attached to it. What are these wires for? They can't be for the tail light, since it only has on filament  I tried to trace them, but i got lost in the harness. I checked wiring schematics, but didn't see anything like that.
      I'll post a pic later.
