its in my picture you can see it,, i have the goodie too,, im gonna take them off though,, dont need them with the forwards,,, the ness kit is sweet for the money, ,, cant beat it,, the brake line alone has to be close to 100 buck,, its all braided,,,, make sure you get some brake clean spray,, and a clear hose to fit on you bleeder screw so you dont **** fluid everywhere when you bleed th ebrakes.... also get a master cylinder gasket,,, mine stated laking a month after i reused it... save time,,, you will need help or a lift to do the left side cause the kick stand.. do the right side first,, you will get the idea,,, you will need some good standard (sae)hex head sockets (autozone,, sears,, lowes) and lock tight (blue) for the new bolts...

and well you at it,, if your bike is close to 3 years old,, i would change your front mastwe gasket too,, so you dont get a paint blistered front brake lever assembly like mine did at exactly 3 years old...

Cool, thanks for the info & pics! I've already replaced both master cylinders because of the leak..thankfully under warranty.
I'm pretty skilled at working on my bike, so it shouldn't be any big issue, except to buy or borrow a lift.

I've been using the Kuryakn Mark IV Extended Cruise arms with some Joker Machine pedals for the pegs. I also have the HarleyGoodies on my boards... I am on the 1925 HD Tractor Spring Seat.

I run around 6'5" and love this setup so far. I usually end up just resting my heels on the boards and the rest of my foot naturally falls on the pedal but, I can go for the full stretch and plant both feet on the pedals too.
