well, it is like Arlo Guthrie's motorcycle song  "I don't want a pickle, just want to ride my motorcycle...there is a mountain on one side and nothing on the other".   Good point though, I didn't think about the breaking systems being separate. 

Hi all, I am looking for a workhorse UTV.  We have some very steep trails, so I want engine breaking in addition to mechanical brakes.  Do the CV transmissions engine break?  In my case, if the transmission failed or freewheeled and the mechanical breaks failed this could be life or death.  Also, I'd like to have a locking front differential. Turning is not really an issue, but there are some straight line situations where I might need it to get a load moving.  Any transmissions or machines you can recommend?  Thanks, Abner
