Could one of you guys that have a later Glide stick a ruler across the caliper bolt holes on the forks please?

I'm interested in the later Brembo calipers

Centre to centre will be fine ....

Hi mutters, if you have the Brembo Calipers with the "cheese grater" style top plate then yes!!

There's no ruler in this here gete so I've measured the Centers with my i phone 5s and they are about an inch short of the length of the phone,no good well you will have to wait till I'm home next week then

I've just done the same, and mine are about an inch short of an iPhone 5s - so, looks like I'll be ok!!!

2 3/4 inches. Not sure what that translates to on the French system?

Thanks Clifton..and don't worry about inches.. It's natural for us to be able to work in both models... I saw this on a sheet of board once .. " 8' x 1220mm

Never seen the 'iPhone' unit of measurement before though. Not unlike bricklayers working to the nearest half brick I guess.

It's a new form of measurement which can be used when you know that the other person has the same device or item and knows what your on about ��

 

[Clifton]

So do you feel newer Brembo calipers will fit? If so that'd be a real improvement.

I have a pair ofconverters available that will fit Brembo Goldline calipers in place of the 2001 on HD calipers. I converted my FXDX to Brembos, them back again when I sold it. I have one left and one right.
Interested?

Mine are nearly 4 inches hole to hole, but yours is a Rushmore spec.. Probably need to go to TC or pre Rushmore and check again...more research required!! - I will also need pre-ABS..

May be.. Mine is an FLHT.. Forks are quite different to a Dyna... More research maybe!

Put a set of Harrison's on and forget pissing about...then you'll have more than enough braking power to overload your front suspension and tyres and wash-out the front wheel at will.........

Forks for Dynas are different to FLHT etc, but what about the calipers? Are they the same? The adaptors are bolted to the forjs in place if the calipers, using the mountings for the HD calipers, then the Brembo caliper mounts on the adaptor. On the HD forks the bolts screw in to the fork lugs, on the Brembos the mounting bolts screw in to the caliper. The Goldlines have a 40mm hole spacing.
Ping me a PM if you want to hold them up to your forks to see if they line up. I need to dig them out from under a pile of parts..

Cheers Mag, I'm not really after Goldlines, the OEM HD Callipers from Brembo are a lot cheaper to source from the US...Appreciate the effort. thanks.
