Default Single side disc
I’m doing my homework before I order my new wheels. I’m looking at the single side disc so you can see the entire wheel on the right side. What do you do with the right side break line? Do you cap it off or is there a kit to eliminate it? I’m looking at 21x 3.5 front wheel and 18 x 4.25 rear on my 05 ultra.

DonnyI, Did you lower your bike? If so what did you use on the front and rear? Do you like the ride with the 21" wheel?

If you go with a Jaybrake 6 piston caliper, there is no need to change the master cylinder. This is what I am running and it works great. I'm currently using the stock rotor, but will eventually swap it out to a 13" piece.
