I got mine from amazon, I had to do some very minor trimming on the screw hole to make it fit perfect, but they work great.

Can you tell a difference vs. the original caliper?

Sure is a good looking product, and I’ve been thinking of upgrading both of my front and rear calipers. Thanks

Yes, it added a bit more braking power. I was mainly trying to git rid of the stock HD caliper because of the 2 piece bracket/caliper and slide pin that needs greased and rubber replaced when worn. I think I'll be more than happy with just putting in some pads when I need em and not having anything else to worry about.

PM is top notch stuff. I've been looking at them, but I don't really need anymore chrome on my bike.

That Purple is awesome, and I refuse to say anything bad about the bags and the passenger boards.

Chrome switch housings, levers, clutch bracket and matching grips on tonight. I got everything done except the chrome master cylinder on the right side. According to the service manual, on bikes with ABS you need the Digital Technician so I opted to wait on that until I research further. Anyone have experience with this and know if its true?

Here is a shot of the left side…
