That's a lot of torque against the forks. I run a 4 piston Hawg halter on my bikes. Can't imagine needing anymore stopping power than that.

After seeing your above post, I searched the forum to find a pic of your set-up. Looks great and thanks for the review:

I have 4 piston from stock up front. While I know hhi 4 pot would be better then stock, im changing to a springer front end, so I need new brakes and I don't want to just make a mild improvement. What I have planned for the motor further down the track, is the reason I want to go to at least one 6 piston caliper. Running two 6 Pistons was more so to try something really crazy.

Here is my 92 softa springer. I just drug her home this last weekend. Got big plans for her, but first it needs a good douching!

Forget if I uploaded recent pics of Ol'Girl. She's a little fun.
Before and after pic.
