Wow..... that looks awesome, bet it handles well.

Did you have any issues with the AN big brake kit, I fitted the same to my LRS and it had really bad brake shudder, I had to take them back off, still waiting on AN to rectify this issue.

It is now, apparently. Up to now all the FXDLS Wave BBK users (2 or 3?) reported shuddering. There was some speculation that it was due to the rotor mount configuration as users with hub mounts weren't seeing the shudder.

Well you must be one of the rare lucky ones to not have a BBK issue on a LRS.

Not sure I'd want to be looking down the business end of a Shield as I'm riding
Sweet looking ride.

They're quite affordable, too. Ness knocked it out of the park with those. I would be running them if they fit.
