I'd look for some take off Brembos! It's a pretty easy change over too.

You didn't say what your riding but I would guess a bagger.. If you have the pre-brembo, you may consider the Lyndall gold pads. I had good luck with them wnen using the harley floating rotors, wear faster but work great.

HD started putting Brembo calipers on in '08.

+1 on the Lydall pads as the first step..

QTM Brembo setup if the pads don't do the trick.

HELL YES!
Put roughly 400 miles on the new '09 RG today...first I've gotten to ride it aside from getting it home when I bought it.
Then when I got home...I pulled the SG out, rode it for about 45 minutes, did a nice burnout, put it back in the garage.
