Missing parking brake lock for U.S.?
I've noticed that some of the Rykers destined for some foreign markets have a lockable parking brake. This prevents someone from just walking up to your Ryker and flipping the lever, letting your baby just roll away. (looks like a disc-lock will be needed) There is a plastic plug in place of the lock tumbler mechanism on the Rykers Iv'e seen here in the States, and a lock is visible on some I've seen in Eastern European Markets. We need every bit of extra security we can get. It will be interesting to see if the lock will be made available, or if something similar can be fitted aftermarket.

I asked about this lock last night. The reps from BRP looked at me like I was speaking a foreign language. So I am going to says US and Canadian bikes are not getting these.

That is the parking brake. Just to the left of the lever is a round plug that would house the parking brake LOCK. North American Rykers do not get this lock.
