I beginning to have a complex about my bra! Oh God -- I feel like a girl now! LOL

 

I would lose the bra also. You can go to any car tinting place and they will put clear tint over your trouble spots and that way no scratches. Then when/if that starts looking bad peel it off and have more put on. Shouldnt be very expensive I dont think. I know they will do the whole front portion of a hood on a car for 40-60 bucks I think. Just a thought. I will be doing this as soon as I get a bike.

 

How much better stopping power does the dual front disk's give?

 

I can't tell you "how much better" because I've not ridden a Custom, or any other single-disc Harley, but they do a pretty respectable job on my "Roadster". If you're looking for more braking power, I'd suggest going to a 4- or 6-piston caliper - way cheaper (and easier) than adding another disc setup. Also, remember that 80% of your braking should be done on the front wheel for the most effective braking...

 

I got the led lights from dennis kirk.com and they are bright plus they are laid back.

 

Can;t really compare it to a Custom, but when I grab a handful of brakes, the SOB sure as hell stops quick! I think it will really come into play when I have a passenger on back (which I have not tried yet).

 

OK -- I dumped the bra. I am already paranoid as is, and the thought of that thing on the tank for a long time, through rain, wind, sun etc made me think twice. It probably will ruin my finish. So hell with it. I'll jsut be more careful and make sure I do not scratch the tank up too much.

So the bra is kaput -- waste of money. Oh well, easy come, easy go. If I get motivated I will put it up on eBay and see if I can at least get a few coins for it. WIsh I had saved the box.

 

I also had the bra for some time , the throw ıt away cause ıt was ruınıng the paınt .
Very sweet rıde you have there , ı lıke the color .
Rıde safe

 

Thanks!

The bra lasted 24 hours on my bike. I'll eBay it.

 

Boy I sure like that black and chrome look of your bike Midwest XL - if you don't mind me asking, what color did you use when you repainted? That black almost looks flat with a clearcoat.

Also, I've been looking at the HD Vivid Black Floating Brake Rotors - has anyone here tried them on a Sportster?

Thanks
