I LOVE EBC. Been using them exclusively on my cars for the last 15 years.

 

i guess i'm cool.

clearly quality.

 

Installed the new bearings, rotor, and "new"(read: $10 ebay) rear brake caliper mount (why? see below the rotor stuff)


The caliper mount was still functional but, took a serious beating from the invincible ebc rotor. those things are no joke. this happened when the wheel walked left on the narrower 205pp bearings when i was trying to get the spaceing/shim stuff right. needed to shim both sides, not just the right/brake side.

 

You sexy beast, you.

 

I'll say this once (and then leave it alone) because I don't want people reading to get the wrong idea...

But you don't shim both sides

 

My parents caught me shimming once. Thank god I wasn't trying to shim both sides. That would have been embarrassing.

 

Bike is looking killer, crazy what a difference those rotors make just looks-wise.

Side note - cvaria how are you liking those Pirelli's? I'm frying through these scorchers quick, gonna be looking at new tires soon...

 

Those Scorchers are throw away tires. Night Dragons are the finest tire you can put on your Dyna, they're all I run; you won't be disappointed in them

 

Nah...Shock and Awe...some

After you get past the Shock...it's Awesome

 

the dragons are great.

100% agree

i did end up getting the W205PPs from motion industries though. good folks.

i think the single side thing applies to moco wheels and not these oddball wheels. i shimmed one side and it walked left. that caliper mount didn't eat itself. that right bearing was just beyond flush with the outer surface of the rotor during the initial fail. not good.


this is how far it walked... and that's where i caught it... not sure how much farther it would have gone. it may have just bottomed out on the 205pp on the left side. bad no matter what.
