Very informative . Thanks for the step by step process. Looks easier than I expected. Will be changing front and back brakes out soon on Dyna Wide Glide

[@RidinDad]

Super easy man!! Back is annoying but very easy still. Happy to help!

[@lyndallbrakes]

Great video, thanks for sharing.

[@RidinDad]

Ayyy 🤙🏼 of course!

[@dextersuarez9948]

Love the Galfer wave rotors. They look amazing, not sure they really made a huge difference to performance, that’s my honest opinion after 3k miles on them. I felt a much bigger difference from using the Lyndal Extreme pads, however they are noisy very loud.

[@RidinDad]

So I’ve had these extreme pads on for about two months already. My stuff is recorded for a while so I can stay on top of my schedule. Use them on my tail of the dragon trip and I’ve never had any noise at all. My front rotors are warped so I actually just purchased and received them in the mail for the cubiq rotors from galfer with their sintered ceramic pads. Hoping I like that setup!

[@dextersuarez9948]

@@RidinDad gotta tear them down and check them out then, thank you for sharing your experience. Hope you like the galfers!

[@dextersuarez9948]

@@RidinDad on a side note, did you end up upgrading your valve springs when you swapped your cam?

[@RidinDad]

I hope so too!! Not a cheap upgrade lol. And nah. My 475 lift cam was a drop in cam. All I did was the chest & pump plus 5.5 lifters. Valve springs stayed the same

[@dextersuarez9948]

@@RidinDad sweet, I’m about to do the pump swap my lifters and springs. I’m getting way too much top end noise. That 475 cam sounds amazing.

[@erikmorales7612]

Yo man, great video! Im about to swap out the front brake pads. Mine are actually worn out, though. So I'm going to open up the resouvoir and when I compress the pistons to pull out the old brake pads. Once I get the new ones on and the brake caliper bolted back on. Once I hit the brake, would that push the pistons back out?

[@RidinDad]

Yupp. You’ll have to compress it a few times before the pistons push the calipers out to make contact with the rotor

[@erikmorales7612]

@Ridin Dad sweet! Thanks man!

[@RidinDad]

👊🏻

[@skitchonwheels]

So I've heard recently the only brakes worse than my 2020 Lowrider S is a 2022 Lowrider S : ) true story, how... I can't imagine.

[@RidinDad]

Lol they’re not that bad in my opinion but definitely huge room for improvement !

[@aromy612]

The maintenance manual says to replace the PAD PIN, but I reused it in the video. Is it okay not to use a new one?

[@RidinDad]

I’ve always reused. The Harley manual also says to only use genuine HD oil too…

[@BikesBeardsAndBrews]

Wait, so you're saying I shouldn't rely on my shoes to stop?! This seems way easier!

[@RidinDad]

Honestly that’s not as crazy as some of the things I’ve heard people tell me they do for brake related activities 😂

[@jhamilton9243]

On this install, did you open the reservoir?

[@RidinDad]

No. I believe I explained this. I didn’t open mine because the pads I was replacing were almost completely new still. If they had many miles or were very worn down I would have

[@jhamilton9243]

@@RidinDad I think you did explain, wasn’t quite sure LOL… I appreciate it… about to change my rotors and pads out as soon as they come in the mail LOL THANK YOU

[@RidinDad]

No problem. Good luck dude!

[@RookieRay]

When’s the full suspension review >:|

[@RidinDad]

Soon! I just got back from my tail of the dragon trip so I feel like I have had enough time with him to actually talk about them with my honest opinion. As soon as my tail of the dragon videos go live the next video will be that. Probably within a month tops

[@user-hz1xs3vy7t]

You dont need thread locker snug and done

[@RidinDad]

You always need thread locker on Harley’s.

[@LowRiderDill]

Hey bro have you ever thought about deleting your abs ?

[@RidinDad]

Almost every day lol. I’m not sure why I haven’t yet. Especially in the rear

[@LowRiderDill]

@@RidinDad ok good yeah I hate it t especially when I’m doing burnouts the front almost like gives out or the pulsing of the rear drives me crazy

[@RidinDad]

Oh that’s crazy. I’ve never really done burnouts on this bike so I didn’t know how bad the front wheel was. But even with just this upgrade for the brakes it wants to engage ABS all the time. And yeah the rear is the worst because there’s barely anything and being able to lock it up if you really needed or wanted to you would really help in slowing down the bike a lot I feel

[@LowRiderDill]

@@RidinDad yeh it does I deleted the abs on the rear it’s way better. I’m doing the front on Tuesday

[@LowRiderDill]

@@RidinDad did you put a Barnett clutch in to?
