I TALKED TO A TEC AT A DEALERSHIP AND HE SAID IT COULD BE THE ENGINE BRAKE AND THE PREVIOUS OWNER PUT BIGGER TIRES (14") ON IT WITH BIG LUGS ON THE TIRES AND THAT MAY BE CAUSING IT TO BE THAT WAY. SEEMS IF IT'S THE ENGINE BRAKE SOMEONE WOULD FIGURE OUT A WAY TO EITHER BYPASS OR DISCONNECT IT (HINT HINT)  LOL

previous owner said it's always been that way and has only driven it 180 miles in 10 years. He said he's not much on working on things. My first thought was the parking brake but i drove it u and down the road without using the brake at all and checked all calipers and none were not even warm. Hopefully I can get some ideas that will led to the problem.

You can't hardly push it by hand either. Even at a higher speed and you let off throttle it feels like you hit the brakes

Hello everyone, i just bought a 2013 Kymco 500 UXV with 185 miles and it feels like a brake is dragging. I have jacked it up and i can turn each wheel but it's no where freewheeling. It does this in reverse and forward and from a dead stop and a slow takeoff the second i let off the throttle it stops like a brake is dragging the rotors are not getting hot. Someone said they have a engine brake but i'm not sure. This is my first side by side so if anyone could help me figure it out.
