brakes are a web of many things to consider and if tangled, can lead to not wanted outcomes.
more hydraulic pressure on the same sweep can increase performance but at a cost. the factory designed the system with everything accounted for: rotor material, pad material and rating, sweep area, master/slave relationship, weight and etc.
if i read the thread, you will be deleting one rotor/caliper assy, right?? not to say it will not work but duals have less torque steer. the hd system is basically a dumb-*** system when compared to others if it is the one i am thinking about. this system relies on applied rider input and then modulates the pressure which negates the need for pumps, accumulators and such but relies upon electric controlled solenoids to prevent lock up.
i do not have abs but i think the system only uses one speed sensor per axle so the is no right abs vs left abs, after-all they are connected.
now if you delete the hose from the module unless it is tee'd at the tree, i do not see any harm because when the system goes static, it equalizes, but since you deleted that volume of fluid, it may/may not add system pressure to the rest which again i see no harm.
but to answer the question, they do make plugs that fit the reverse flare in the block or you can get a fitting with a line nub extending from the nut a tad and fit it up to tighten the assy (on another fitting) and braze in the nub, this way you know the nub flare mates to the block.
