I'm kicking around the 360 brake and no rotors!

Isn't this thing cool looking. :2vrolijk_21:



Yes it is, now chrome the frame and swingarm and it'll be off the charts When was the last time you saw a Road King with a chrome frame ?

I don't know if I have.

On that note I'm becoming the anti chrome guy. Black powdercoat the entire bike! Alloy Arts bike in this months AB is sweet with the dulled silver and black parts. :2vrolijk_21:

 A satin black frame would be way too cool for school dude. I didn't think of that till I read your post.

The secret to a Silver bike is to get all the different textures right on.  Exile has a good handle on this.

Looks great.  But how well does it work?  Fading?  Head dissipation?  Panic stopping distances?  Life span and serviceability.  Looks great!  But is it functional and a pain in the arse or not?

Did you missed the link?  http://baldwin-wilson.com/360.html 

There are 277 hits on Google for "360 brake" (I narrowed it down from 1,360,000 with quotes)

I found this tidbit

Your wheel hub must be removable, therefore no spoke or stock Harley Wheels

One of these days I'll stop in and see if I can get a little tour of the facility.   I think they started up around Jan 06.

Bottom line is it appears like they perform as good as they look.

I saw that chart,  I think it's a repeated stop test from the looks of it.  I guess they dissipate heat OK.

I made my way out to the garage this afternnon and decided to install my Progressive Suspension front lowering kit. While it is not hard, it is a little time consuming. I think I had every tool I own out of the tool box. ;) My picture taking lacked as I got so involved with setting this front end up I forgot to snap some pics as I was going along.

With the Road Glide the speedometer, tach, ignition switch, and tripple tree covers had to come off. The rest was standard dropping of the front end stuff.

The entire front end off as a complete assembly. It had to come apart in order to install the lowering springs.
