What did you do to your 18+ softail today?

Is the usage of bigger rotor okay if you have ABS, or does it mess with its system? (since the braking power changes). I couldnt find a clear answer for this. I would like to have more braking power too, but I am scared what would it do in case of emergency brake+messed up ABS

Idk, but I'm guessing here...(I'm a maintenance tech by trade) there is no wires comming out of the bearing? (Lol?). If anything, there may be a magnet or "pickup" in the bearing, but detected by an exterior "sensor". That's why I say I doubt there is a "sensor" "in" the bearing. Maybe it's wireless!

Hey, can you post up the Arlen Ness part number for this kit? If it really is the same as the Dyna, my big brake kit might get transferred from the old bike to the new one before i sell it!

I'd be careful here. I went through this with Ness before they finally releases the 18+ softail version I installed on my '19 Low Rider. The adapter my not align the pad contact area correctly. In fact to me, looking at the photo, it looks like the caliper is too far outboard.
Did 'Ness stop selling the official '18+ softail kit?
Edit: Actually looking at the photo closer, from what I can see, it looks ok.

FYI, Ness' US site still has nothing on the 18+, however I saw this: https://rolliesspeedshop.com/product...bob-low-rider/ which shows a part number: AN-02-996
If you want to take a gamble, Amazon has it:

the "ring" is in the bearing, the pickup is text to the spacer that goes on front axel, i had all parts dissasemblied yesterday when i changed the brakedisc. Byt since you are a maintenence guy by trade (lol), ill guess you should just continue to mock me, to take away focus from the fact that it doesent affect abs function with changing size of rotor.
