'07 vs '08 Brakes

[motorjon68]

How much better are the new Brembos compared to the previous brakes. I'm looking at an '07 Road Glide but may go '08 if the upgrades warrant it. I'd love some feedback. Thanks

From the reviews I have read you can get the brembos with ABS which is said to work very well.
Also with the '08 you also get a 6 gallon fuel tank.

The Brembos are light years ahead of the HD brakes. There is a reason almost ALL high performance sport bikes use Brembo! Add the ABS feature and Brembo and you have a MAJOR performance enhancement to the HD line.

In my opinion adding ABS is ranks up there with introducing the Twin Cam motor! You wouldn't buy a car without ABS, would you? Unless you are a professional rider or dang close to it, ABS will make you a safer biker. I tour on a Harley, but my commuter bike is a BMW R1200RT with ABS. I can't count the number of times the ABS has kicked-in during emergency stopping. I should add the BMW has Brembo brakes too.

Does anyone have an idea what the ABS brakes would cost to upgrade an 07 Ulta Classic?

I believe I read somewhere that it was $795.00 plus labor. But I am not sure. maybe someone else has a better handle on it.
