Hi, I was wondering if anyone had any advice on how to improve the rear brake on the 4rt. It doesn't seem to be very strong. Thank you.

how old is the bike? you could try overhauling it with a caliper overhaul kit and a break overhaul kit that should improve it as the back break on a 4rt well my one is prety good mabe just needs adjusting check your service maual on how to do that.

Guessing your rear brake pedal is bent, you can stand on it with both feet & you'll not get the leverage to work it. Fit a sherco one or if you've got more money buy one from H & D, both work far better than the standard pedal & are wont bend like the standard ones do.
