Default Matching Street Bob Rotors???

I'm getting ready to install my freshly chromed 21" wheel on my 07 street bob and while I was trying to visualize how its going to look on the bike I realized how crappy the stock front rotor looked. I couldn't stand the thought of bolting that nasty looking thing back on the new wheel. So I started looking into getting a better looking rotor. Then I thought, if I get a front, I should get a rear that matches since they couldn't even do that from the factory. Plus I'm kinda OCD about things matching. Then I find its about impossible to find a matching set of rotors for this bike due to the 11.8" floater on the front. I've been looking every where with no luck. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Even a stock wide glide rotor would look better. Thanks guys

The fronts don't HAVE to be floating..HD's are barely that anyways..Not to mention they weigh a ton.Call Wilwood get the P/N you need and buy from Summit Racing.

I like these from the HD catalog, chrome or black. They're about $110 each from the discount places like Lake Shore Harley.

i run those wilwood's in black

IMO they're the best looking rotors for spoked wheels

my front isn't a floating rotor.

I run the same wilwoods also. I think they were $185 for the pair shipped.

Just remember the outer edge goes back to a steal color once they are used just like in toast's sig pic. Still looks better IMO. I just need to black out my rims.

I love my DNA super spokes, I have seen many bike builders using them these days, good quality and reasonable price. I paid $120 for the pair including chrome hardware.

How's the stopping power on those? I really like those too.. Are they straight up plug and play? Thanks-

My stopping is better. Nothing like a dual disk set up but over stock it is better. I'm also running the lyndals gold brake pads too. I did them both at the same time, so not sure which made the best change. I like to ride pretty hard and I've had no problem stopping/slowing. The first few miles aren't the greatest. But once you wear off the black and break in the pads you're good to go. They bolt right up no problem. Here are the part numbers.

Wilwood Disk
160-10664-BK and 160-10665-BK. I forgot which one was front and rear, but I think it was on the box or their site for sure.

Lyndal Gold pads
Front 7256
Rear 7257
