Title: any benefit to pb block off plate?
Post by: ThisGuyAlex on May 24, 2008, 11:28:44 AM
mine seized up and i was wondering.... other than cosmetic, is there any benefit to putting on one of those plates vs. just disconnecting the cable from the rear caliper?

As long as no wires are exposed, etc. I'm sure it's more cosmetic.

It helps so you can take the parking brake of the handlebars and stuff, other than that no not really, i just needed to get rid of the PB so i could make room for my handguards  8)

I have one on my 350...
