Default E-brake engages the Front or back brakes?
Try to search but I couldn't find anything. Look through the Honda helms manual and it didn't say anything about it.

Does the E-brake engage the front or rear brakes? both?

rear only, you can follow the cable from the center console to the rear calipers.

Rear--think about the drifters that want to kick out the back end and use the ebrake to lock the rears to initiate the slide.

If they're hardcore about drags, they might have line locks (if they're RWD). Otherwise,

Cool, learn something new everyday. I never had to use it so I always thought the e-brake lever made a stick drag on the ground.
