Hey Joe,
They look great, what I am trying to do is lose some of the middle to show more of the rims.

I'm not sure you can achieve the open look of the FXD rotors because yours will mount differently. But if you look at the ones Traceman made, with the design matching the wheels it gives the impression of a more open design because it blends in to the wheel so well.
Are you running the HD slotted six spoke wheels? If they don't offer a matching rotor, you should look into having some made.

Yeah we made them on our CNC. Just couldn't find anything that matched good enough for me. We are all about the subtle details. I attached a pic of the one I made for my bike to match my wheels.

Those powdercoated ones look good.
