That's a SEAL NOT a Trim Cover

So as I said before, NO Cover/Cap under that Boot

If you cut that SBob boot off, it would be like just LEAVING this chrome cover OFF the Low Rider. Might work for you, but I'm guessing not for everyone

I don't think they are Brembos...but they may be a Nissan (dunno for sure, haven't studied them close enough yet)

i was just going off the shape, what ever it it is doesn't justify that solid rotor. especially with the price increase. i guess they gave more in some place and took away in others

Yeah. But. There's a definite overlap period in play here. And input from Dyna folks is very valuable on the Softail forum right now.

Those geezers know nothing about bikes that actually handle - so don't let them take the high ground.

If 103 to 107 is giving more, then yes. But that's just free space. Smaller tank, digital speedo, crapy textured handlebars, etc, is not giving more. You say it is? Fine. enjoy.

Good post adm. I think Bob vs Bob can be discussed in this section. Some people are just too picky.
