Not a big deal now, but I think you have the calipers reversed (side for side). Your brake lines/bleeders should be UP
...but going to look good
You are correct sir, fixed that when I took the brackets off so I could take it out for a rip since the weather was halfway decent today. Put it back on the correct way and measured for the brake lines. Should be on the way tomorrow and searching for a master and rotor now!
Love the look of those Brembos...if I ever come across a pair on ebay that isn't an arm and a leg I'll go that path.
What color for the powder coat?
Powder will be black except the logo which will be polished. Calipers really arent that bad I picked these up for under $250 with shipping. Its all the stuff that goes along with it that gets expensive. Brake lines, fork legs, brackets for the calipers and the master cylinder. All in all Ill probably have around $650 or $700 into the front brakes but you cant get much better than brembo monoblock calipers! If I were to ever have trouple on the road all I have to do is find a Suzuki dealer and ask for parts for a 2014 GSXR 600 or 750 as well.

Sounds like a good color combo.
I know exactly what you mean about the cost, here's what stops my '88 1250XL...
I think when I do the dual fronts on my Street Bob it'll be with Tokico to save a bit of cash unless I can find a smoking deal on Brembos.
Picked up a brand new master on eBay the other day, everything is blacked out on the bars except the mirrors so I wanted to keep that theme going. I picked up the calipers on eBay for $230. They are front calipers from a 2009-2015 gsxr 600 or 750.
Cool! Wasn't sure if you keeping chrome or blacking out.
Did you get Brembo master? I initially didn't think about it, but ended up getting one from touring. Problem is I need lever, and I run shorty one with trigger. so more $$

I'm planning on cutting down stock levers and powder coating them to match. Master is an 11/16 and is made for the dyna. It's the stock master that comes on the lowrider and fat bob.
Cutting is easy, trigger requires welding. maybe i can find some local shop that can do that.
Brembo master was designed to work w/ HD brembo calipers. You have better calipers, so I believe at least you need this to realize full potential. Thare are other more costly options. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Harley-David...3D332024807398

Well I got my stock levers cut down and powder coated today. Dropped them off at 1:00 and picked them up at 4:30 hows that for quick service! Also polished up the logo and painted the calipers tonight and I have to say they turned out incredible!
