Need more front brake!
Just bought a 02 Springer and I am used to a Road Kings front brakes and it really sucks at the front . The pads look dang near new , So i thought I would flush and bleed the front lines I hope that does the trick. Any thoughts or suggestions? Hmm, wonder if the shock on front is weak?

Pull the pads, clean caliper pistons with brake cleaner and scrub with an old tooth brush. When your finished cleaning check and make sure all piston are operating/extending at the same rate/movement if not keep cleaning. It's possible the caliper pistons are cakes up with dirt/dust. Another option would be installing a floating rotor and installing a set of Lyndall Racing Z Plus pads. This is a nice safety performance upgrade. It has worked very well for me.
