Rear brake modifications

[Dingo151]

Hey,

Has anyone ever tried to make their rear brake less sensitive on a WR 426? Mine seems to be like a light switch either it's off or locked up. Everything is stock and the pads are still good so I'm at a loss as to what I could do to change it.

Thanks

Put a little air in it.....

Ditto! I do the same thing on my WR and R1. Mushy up the brakes but still allow it to lock up at full stroke.

Might seem to be an unrelated question, but what boots do you wear on your WR?

I've got a set of MSR boots

OK. The reason I ask, is that with my Fox Forma Pro's, I have the same situation. No feeling through the soles means my rear brake is either not on, or locked up. I've tried other boots, so I know it's them, not a problem with the bike. Initially, I changed to SBS brake pads, still the same.....
