Default superglide dual disks

How expensive/hard is it to put a second front disk on a superglide (2008)?

I also want to black out the engine... is this pricey?

From what I've read, it is pretty darn expensive. You have to get a right side lower fork leg, another rotor and caliper, new brake line, and a new/larger master cylinder. You can use a Brembo/touring caliper, and you will need a larger disk. You will still only have one disk but a larger disc and a much better caliper. Check this discussion out.

hrmm, but apparently you can just upgrade the one rotor and/or the caliper to have more pistons?

Either way it's gonna cost some bux..it's around $500 on up if u do it yourself, I still haven't finished my dual disk setup since Christmas takes priority. But I'm at $315 right now for everything but still need pads and brake line $80+$150 so ill be right around 550 when it's finished

If you can find the parts used, it will still be cheaper than doing a 6-piston caliper upgrade on the one side.
