Talon handbrake

[Brazula4life]

Anyone tried putting a handbrake on a talon? i know there is a company out there that makes them for x3 and polaris.

Try a @Hillbilly Brake
They work nicely.

Yes they do.

Here's a tip for easier installation of the Hillbilly Brake. The brake fixture attaches to the brake pedal mounting bracket using two bolts, fender washers and serrated face nuts. It's a bit fiddly to get the fender washer and nut up in there and in position on the end of the bolt. Gluing the fender washers to the nuts beforehand, using a couple of small spots of super glue, really simplifies things as you can push the "assembly" up into the bracket with one fingertip and both will be perfectly aligned for bolt insertion.

After installation, if more parking brake force is needed when parking on an incline, you can easily adjust it. The threaded brake actuator rod attaches to the brake pedal with a shackle. Loosen the locknut on the front face of the shackle, then you can turn the threaded rod by hand to extend it from the shackle a couple of turns. Tighten locknut and test. It may be convenient to put a felt tip mark on the threaded shaft so you can count the turns.

Haven't seen one.
But I wonder if you could tie something like this into the brake lines.

That looks to be a hand brake for "drifting" not parking!

They do make both manual hydraulic-lock parking brakes like this:
Manual brake lock

as well as electric solenoid brake locks (though the reviews are spotty)

Not looking for parking brake. Something like the indecent motorsport handbrake for drifting. I do rallycross and that can be very useful.

In order for that to work in 4wd I think you would have to rig up a micro switch on the handbrake that cut power to the front diff clutch so it disengaged while the brake was active, otherwise you would still have braking at all 4 wheels because of the driveshaft connecting them together.

I bet locking up the rear wheels would also cause the I4wd to freak out and make it do ABS stuff when you don't want it to.

I have thought about connecting a relay between the brake pedal switch and the front diff clutch that cuts power to it when I get on the brakes and would re-engage the front diff when the pedal is released. I'm thinking it would help with turn in, but haven't tried it yet.

The reason some are putting hand brakes on RZR's is because in Michigan for example a parking/hand brake is required to be street legal. Devices that hold the pedal down are not accepted.
