Yes I did and yes they are. (Only because the full fender on the Electra Glide makes access extremely tight.)

Since the initial install, any time I've had to open up the system, i just unbolt them and bleed them loose.

Yes but if you still have a mechanical speedo drive unit it gets a little entertaining.

Yeah. And I just bought new lowers for this bike. Kinda wish I would have got them off a 2000, bit too little too late.

Wilwoods are the go to for performance and a decent price, get one for a bit over $200. Running duals on my shovel, they are almost too good a brake system.
