Ok maybe i worded my stuff wrong yesterday........but i have a 2006 honda rancher 350 and when i try to stop my brakes dont gradually stop... its either no stop or my brakes lock up. The brakes are brand new on the wheeler and neither my parking or front brakes are working that great. Its like there is too much slack in my cables or something. What should i do?

It's hard to say for sure without actually looking at it, but you might want to consider replacing the brake cables as they be stretched over time. Also, there are adjustments on the brake lever to tighten the slack. Check that out and let me know how it goes. Hope this helps.
