Better breaks

markshr151 ยท 2013-04-10 23:22

After a panic stop in heavy traffic with my fl 60 weighting in at 25,000 I am wondering what I can do to have enough break power to lock up my wheels. The drums shoes and other parts are in very good shape. Is it even potable ?

    Any FL60 should have antilock brakes, should it not? If so, the ABS was probably not allowing them to lock.

    Man, I hate my brakes locking the wheels up. Are your brakes air or hydraulic?
