     OK, we all know the rear brakes on late model HDs are crap!

    Was hoping someone could suggest a better calliper (preferably 4 spot) that will fit the Fatbobs rear.

    Doesn't look like a lot of room between rotor and mag wheel!

    Has anybody solved this problem......the front brakes are brilliant, the rear are wooden and almost non existent compared!

     Finally installed new floating rotor and Lyndall GOLD pads to rear of Fatbob. (decided to wait till I had wheel off for new tyre)

    Theres definitely a big improvement, 30% easy...........still not great, but heaps more feel than before! Reckon I can live with em like this.

    Will definitely replace fronts with Lyndall pads when I wear the originals out.

    Thanks Styx for the info!
