Well, poop. He did respond to me on FaceBook, indicated he made a post here with a few pictures, etc.. I did not see it in this thread. I sent him a quick note in case it got lost in the ether.
Here are some pictures I took from FaceBook. I need to order one up. It is on my list of mods. The price for the bracket he makes seems more than reasonable to me.
The picture below is for the Ness rotor part number I think? 15" model.
I like it. The red caliper is a nice touch. 👍. Ill put the black center in mine. Likewise I dont use FB so I will need to locate him here to message him or email or something.

Here you go..... I pulled this from the PayPal invoice. The site currently seems to be down?
Does anybody have any thoughts on jagged rotor vs. standard or non-jagged rotor? Seems like they are the same except for the cosmetic differences and the leading edge? I tried the Google machine for some input. No luck. It is Arlen Ness 02-972 vs 02-994. Looks like the fitment is the same between the two (EX: 06-17 Dyna Hub Mount Left Side.) Issues on a jagged vs. standard rotor? I kind of like the jagged better.
Did some more searching..... Might just be for looks.
Scalloped brake rotors:
Scalloped rotors are uniquely designed to reduce surface area which effectively reduces weight. In race applications saving weight is critical for obvious reasons. Reducing rotating mass means your car will slow down quicker. However, reduction in weight may be true in this design, the real reason behind these wavy rotors is just marketing. They look cool. Manufacturing rotors just as light with the same surface area by keeping the design a perfect ring shape is possible without wavy edges. The motorcycle industry has been using scalloped rotors the longest and it is slowly now starting to creep over into the auto industry. You will rarely ever see race cars or race bikes running these rotors as they serve no real practical purpose.
I like them. Mostly for looks as they stand out more. Like the drilled & slotted its to help evacuate gas & reduce unsprung weight. That is the exact rotor I want to put on mine.
I did 140 miles yesterday and it seemed to get better as the day went on they were soft at first but i did reuse the existing Lyndal pads that I installed in September. I dont usually ****** the front brake and the fluid is due to be changes so there is that.
