sadunbar,

As another convert to Brembos front and rear over two years ago, I would highly recommend them. I would also go to the further expense and add the Brembo (True) Floating Rotors. I say true because the HD Floating Rotors are not really a Floating Rotor.

Twolanerider supplied a Link to an eBay Listing for Brembos, I tried the link and it was gone. However, go on eBay and search Brembo (Harley) their are a number of Brembo Brakes Parts for sale.

I bought a complete set Front & Rear Calipers (Gold), Mounting Hardware, Front & Rear Floating Rotors and [highlight]all of the Russell SS Braided lines [/highlight]off eBay for apprx US $850.00. A food deal come up once in awhile. The ony thing I need to replace is the rear Brake Pads.

Of course, the 07 SEUC comes with braided lines...Is there any other reason to change the brake lines??  Will the stock SS braided lines and fittings work with the Brembo calipers?

thanks...

sandubar,

Did not know the CVO and 07s had SS fitting and lines.

I see no reason that the stock SS braided lines and fittings would not work, maybe someone else has another opinion.

With the 4 piston 4 pad calipers they take a 90 degree fitting at the banjo bolt.  The stock line is 1 peice so I just built a new line with goodrich hardware.
