Ruben, I am still really pleased with the peformance of the Brembos and my opinion has not waivered from my post back on April 15! I've only put about 4,000 miles on them so far, but I couldn't be happier. It's difficult to describe, but I think from what you wrote in your first sentence, you'll understand when I say the feedback you get with these calipers and pads is much, much improved over the stock ones. The power is immense and you CAN LOCK the front wheel, but only near the end of a stop (talking about dry pavement here) and there is plenty of warning through the lever before that happens. Basically, the lever transmits what is going on at the rotor, which is what I was used to on the Nissin's on my previous metric bikes.
As good as the front is, the rear is where the majority of the improvement is. The rear brake has always been my primary b!tch with the stock Harley brakes. Gone is the "on/off" feel of the stock setup. The Brembo caliper gives a much more progressive action, with, again, much better feel at the pedal, even through a boot.
On the dusting, they are marginally worse than the stock DP pads that the H-D's come with, even more so when used hard, but the dust is seemingly easier to remove than with the stock pads. I used to have to scrub to get the calipers and wheels clean before, and now it pretty much all comes off with the use of Armor All or Harley's wheel cleaner and a strong stream of water.
So, to sum it up, I'm totally please with the upgrade. I know that many here have reported success with the Lyndall pads, so that might be a way to go, first, to see if that gives you the performance you're looking for. I haven't tried them, so I can't comment on that, but if you're looking to get the chrome calipers and what I feel was a substantial performance improvement at the same time, I can highly recommend the Brembos.
