Default Brembo Brakes?

I did not know this:


"The Street Rod has twin 300mm discs up front, shrouded by what look like Harley-Davidson’s own twin piston calipers. Its only closer inspection of the rear brake reservoir that gives the game away – the brakes are manufactured by ByBre. This is not a bad thing as ByBre stands for By Brembo, a subsidiary of Brembo that shares it’s years of experience in these budget stoppers that are beginning to pop up on bikes from KTM, Honda and now Harley-Davidson."


"ByBre - an abbreviation of 'By Brembo' – is a brand specifically dedicated to small-to-medium displacement motorcycles and scooters."

Yes and I find it interesting how I read the brakes are not very good on the Street models. I know there were issues with the first 2015 brakes but HD addressed the issues in 2016.

My 2017 Street Rod has outstanding brakes.

Agreed and not getting run over by drivers worshiping cell phones seems to be the other half...
