Guy at the trailhead told me to stop feathering the brake on downhills and it changed how I ride my quad
He said dragging the brakes all the way down a long grade on my Sportsman 570 cooks the pads faster than just gearing down and letting the engine hold it, so now I'm wondering if anyone else rides the brake or trusts engine braking, because the two sides of this argument at my local club in Flagstaff are pretty split.
