I am not either, I'm definitely not doing this project on my own. Between time and money sometimes projects take a little longer for me. Im coming up on a year with the FXR and im just now doing stuff to it,

This was before the parts were taken off for powdercoat, and with the old wheels. Seat, new bars and risers are on.

Upgraded front brakes Brembo calipers form a 2017 bagger and floating rotors. Adapter brackets from Ramjet Racing.

Nice!
I have the calipper. Need the correct size rotor next.
Hoping to get this done on my Slim during the winter.
Yours turned out perfect.
What rotor is that?

The rotors are HD 11.5 floaters. Normally these Brembos require 11.8 rotors, but the Ramjet Racing adapters are designed to allow the use of 11.5 rotors. Had to slightly space the calipers, not a big deal.

When it comes to rotors avoid the cheap ones, they warp easily, and then you have to replace. Wait until you have the $$ and get a decent set.
