Taking Care of the Unexpected
226
If a Component Fails
The brake levers or pedal, control cables, and other components can
be damaged as you ride in dense brush or over rocky terrain. Making
a trailside repair depends on how serious the damage is and what
tools and supplies you have with you.
• If any component of the brake system is damaged, you may be
able to ride carefully back to your base using the other brake
components for slowing or stopping.
• If you damage a throttle cable or other critical component, your
ATV may be unsafe to ride. Carefully assess the damage and
make any repairs that you can. But if there is any doubt, it’s best
to be conservative and safe.
