You mean brakes? Not yet but I've been suggested to see if I can put the front Touring caliper on the BO. It's the Brembo 6 pistons and should improve the braking action.
any other info on using this setup? sounds like a good upgrade....

Still studying this setup, but I guess it'll be worth doing. For me it's gonna be a little bit more complicated since I'll have to find a chrome left front caliper already chrome plated (or a stock one to have chromed) since I'm having chrome nearly everywhere on my BO.
For the technical point of view it'll be helpful to have the opinion of someone more prepared than me (e.g. 24V) who can say something more on this setup and if there'll be any issue with ABS (I guess not)
Btw, a few days ago I bought the 25mm front flush mount axle too!

I don't know anything about putting the touring brakes on the Softail. I have read it works, and don't think it should have an effect on the ABS, but the only way to be sure would be to give it a shot.
I can't wait to see all these parts on your bike. It should look amazing.
Haven't visited in a while, but these Breakout's are looking great!
I'm trying to locate part #'s for the BO 103 Derby and Timer cover's, and having no luck. If anyone can find these, it would be the master... 24v, I've seen him come up with schematic's and parts for a variety of stuff. Any chance?
Sweet, thank you!
I see you swapped out the BR 2-2 for a 2-1, is that gloss black? Lookslike it in your sig pic, and if so i didn't know they now made them in a gloss. I always thought the fat end of the 2-1 looked best matching up to the fat rear tire. well done, i just found your "exhaust doesn't fit, my ***" thread!

Thanks mate, me too!
I think this time I'll give it a shot on the Touring front caliper. I only need to find the correct one already chromed or find a stock one to have it chromed. I guess it'll be a later addition after all the other parts.
