Kidding, but very nice. Two questions.

Can you run 2-up on that RSD fender, if so how?

How do you like that PM brake. Does it make a big difference. Is it worth the cost?

I run 2-up all the time, works great with this fender.
I have a suction cup seat I use, works pretty well.

PM calipers are amazing, Easy install and makes the bike stop so much better then factory.
The stock front caliper is a large single piston that is rediculous.
I now have a 4 piston PM caliper and makes the bike stop in EASILY half the distance.
HIGHLY RECOMMENED PM Calipers.

FYI.... anytime you order anything to work on a Springer double and triple check your parts order. Ive recieved wrong parts a few times due to Springers are rare and they say and they send the wrong parts.

You're running the 4 piston on the front too? I'd really like to see that. The braking sucks.

More or less done for the season, will probably be putting on a tag frame with integrated turn signals on it next week, but otherwise I don't plan on changing anything else on it this year.

Heres the front caliper, easy bolt on hardest part was draining old fluid and bleeding new lines etc.......

I don't have my part numbers but I ordered from DR. Vtwin and they knew exactly what i needed etc, like I said make sure they understand its for a springer..... SPRINGER require special parts....

DR vtwin was awesome to work with and sent me the correct calipers immediately I HIGHLY recommend them
