Forward Controls
Is there any benefit in running forward controls with a master versus leaving it where it is. I know that the style of the control will differ but lets hear the pros and cons.
TIA, FXD2003Rider
Looks great, Richard!
Did you use a braided or rigid brake line?

I went with braided stainless, in the top pic you can see the braided line just below the pipe at the seam in the pipe. I have since hidden it better than what you see in these pics.
I use a brake switch back in the stock position, so it is a 2 piece brake line. If I remember right they are Russell brake lines. Had to buy a chrome brake switch unit from Dennis Kirk and rebend the mount bracket for it, but nothing difficult to do.
