I have recently purchased a Big Bear with a wet brake and have been having significant problems with the rear differential housing getting so hot that I cannot keep my hand on it even after riding in minus 12 degree celcius weather. It seems that the brake consists of five disc plates that sit inside the housing beside the differential gears and are therefore always bathed in the 80 grade heavy gear oil. Even under that condition and during times when the brake is not applied, the housing gets hot. Initially it got so hot that the rear end had to be rebuilt. Yamaha Canada suggests that heat up to 60 degrees celcius is acceptable -- however the mechanics and dealers that I have talked to say there should only be a slight amount of amout of heat (warm to the touch) building up in the same way that a convential differential operates. I am curious to know if others are having heat build up too. joehunwicks@hotmail.com
Might want to post on http://www.grizzlyforums.com. Its a site dedicated to the Yamaha Grizzly.

The brake light on your 2004 Yamaha V-Star may not work due to a few common issues. First, check the brake light bulb, as it may be burnt out and simply needs replacement. Additionally, inspect the brake light switch, which could be malfunctioning or misaligned, preventing it from activating the light when the brake is engaged. Lastly, ensure that the wiring and connections are intact and free from corrosion or damage.
There are several types of brake servo and are we talking about unbolting it and throwing it away or do you mean if the servo is eleminated from the system? Most brake systems will work if the Brake Booster servo does not work. No braking system will work if you unbolt the servo and throw it away.
According to the parts man at Yamaha who I talked with today, the number is on the frame on the left side by the footpegs. This was for a Warrior 350, but may work for your model too. For my Yamaha Moto-4 350 - the VIN is located on the frame, adjacent to the (rear side) of the left front tire.
It a brake system rarely seen in new models.when a fast going car suddenly press the brake the brake system will not work and wheels stuck it led to out of controll. when the anti brake system installed in car the car will suddenly stop,the wheels work fast and not roll....
the brake control valve is used to control the amount of hydrauic pressure form the hydraulic system to the brake system through the metering valve.
it is most likely your shift linkage that runs from your shifter to your gear case tinker with that and she will most likely work again (it is the rod that is on the left side when you pull off the side panel)
The power brake reduces the driver's effort to brake by enlisting the engine to boost brake pressure. The Power Brake system is designed in such a way that should the engine fail, the brake will still work one more time.
a brake booster supplies power to the brake system. this takes the hard out of the brake pedal allowing brakes to work harder with less effort or pressure on pedal from the driver
