I got the new bleeder and got the system filled up and bled. The ride report isn't going to be very fair right now since the pads are brand new and need to bed before they'll really grab. Initial thoughts are that the bike does stop better, is it $1000 worth of better? Probably not, but I think the look of the dual rotors and and the added stopping power is worth it to me. At least the bike is set of for dual disc now, if I wanted to add better calipers to help in stopping power it's an easy bolt on but I think I'm happy with it the way it is. It's only going to get better as the pads break in too. Here's some better shots of the setup, as you can see the upper line is a little long but not bad
Nice clean lower assembly
New leg, caliper and rotor

Looks much more balanced with a rotor on the right side
As you can see you can't even see enough of the rear wheel to tell their not identical matches, I'll try and get a picture next time the bags are off, I still don't think you'd be able to tell, they're so close as it is

Nice setup and great info here. It does look sick and more important for me, functional. HD really needs to make another T-Sport with inverted front end, dual discs, adjustable suspension, and oh yeah, a 120R!
...IMO this thing looks so much better with dual disc and I can't wait to feel the difference.
