@harley dave that old school Electra Glide is lovely, but I can understand why you're nervous about the brakes.
I picked up a set of Rizoma Leggera indicators for the Thruxton when I was in the UK. They're tiny, and the rear units also have brake and rear light functions. Plus they have a CE rating, which means they're street legal. Useful when there are over enthusiastic law enforcement officials in these parts.

The glide has brakes but it's….is it going to stop .......please stop...........please please stop.....and breath and relax ....
-
You'd be better off throwing an anchor out if you want to.stop

The glide is a 70 cone shovel the road king 2002 last of the carb models …so no EFI to sod around with

@Sam's got a Triumph Tiger 800, @harley dave.

Triumph announced the Bonneville Speedmaster earlier today.
It's basically a Bobber, with an upgraded rear subframe to allow it to carry luggage or a pillion, and a 12 litre fuel tank, up from 9 litres. Cruise control has been added as standard. There are something like 130 accessories in Triumph's parts catalogue for it already!
I think that it's a more practical take on the Bobber, although it loses some of that bike's charm. I don't like the metalwork around the pillion seat, as it looks clumsy, and the chrome makes it more apparent.
