GMA Front Single Disc Brake Caliper And Bracket Kit For Harley FL 1973-1984
Engineering Excellence: GMA Front Single Disc Caliper Kit (1973–1984 FL)
Modernize the braking response of your Shovelhead or early Evolution Electra Glide with the GMA Front Single Disc Caliper and Bracket Kit. For riders of vintage FL models, the original factory calipers are known for being heavy, prone to rattling, and delivering a “wooden” lever feel. GMA Engineering eliminates these issues with a high-performance, dual-piston billet aluminum system designed for riders who demand both safety and style.
High-Performance Billet Engineering
The GMA “A” series caliper is built with a focus on rigidity and hydraulic efficiency:
Dual-Piston Opposed Design: Unlike the original single-piston floating design, the GMA unit uses two pistons that apply equal pressure to both sides of the rotor simultaneously. This provides a more balanced “bite” and significantly more predictable modulation at the lever.
Billet Aluminum Rigidity: CNC-machined from aircraft-grade 6061-T6 billet aluminum, these calipers resist expansion and “flex” under heavy braking. This ensures that every bit of force from your master cylinder is converted into stopping power, eliminating the spongy feel common in vintage bikes.
Reduced Unsprung Weight: By replacing the heavy cast-iron or cast-aluminum factory assembly with lightweight billet aluminum, you improve front-end suspension tracking and overall handling.
A Complete, Direct-Fit Solution
Dedicated FL Mounting Bracket: This kit is engineered specifically for the wide-glide front ends of 1973–1984 FL models. The included bracket ensures perfect alignment over your factory 10-inch front rotor.
Clean, Low-Profile Aesthetics: Available in a Clear Anodized (Silver) or Black Anodized finish, the GMA caliper has a smooth, timeless design that cleans up the front of your bike while showcasing your spokes and chrome.
Serviceability: GMA calipers are engineered for longevity, utilizing high-grade internal seals and standard replacement brake pads that are easy to source for future maintenance.
Technical Specifications
Fitment: Fits 1973–1984 Harley-Davidson FL models with single disc front ends.
Rotor Compatibility: Designed for use with the factory 10-inch front disc.
Master Cylinder Note: Works best with the original 5/8″ or 3/4″ bore front master cylinders.

Don’t let outdated braking technology hold your classic back. The GMA Front Caliper Kit is the professional’s choice for adding confidence-inspiring performance to vintage Harley-Davidson touring models.
