Brake Pads for Arlen Ness 15" rotor
Hello all, new to the forum and this is my first post.
I have an 03 Dyna Wide Glide that I bought about a year ago. I noticed a rubbing sound coming from the front wheel last summer. Replaced the brake pads with Harley OEM and it seemed to go away for a while. Riding about 2 weeks ago and noticed the sound was back. Looked at the rotors and brake pads and it looks like the rotor might be slightly off true and the pads still look like they are in decent shape. So did some research and bought the Arlen Ness 15" rotor as a replacement. Wasn't something I have time for and I just passed 10k miles so having it serviced and the new rotor put on. While talking with the service department at my local Harley shop the guy says that he would not recommend Harley OEM brake pads with after market rotors. So he transfers me over to the parts department and the guy there acted like he had never heard of this and couldn't really give me a recommendation on what pads I should run with the Arlen Ness rotor. So coming to this forum asking for advice and insight into what pads I should run? I have searched the forum and not did not come across anything that lead me to the information I am looking for.
Thanks in advance for the assistance.
