Default Chrome rotors on a Deluxe

Anyone here own a Deluxe that has factory standard laced or smooth laced wheels that changed the factory rotors to chrome rotors? If so what brand and or style did you go with?

Default RE: Chrome rotors on a Deluxe

Mate i got the HD teardrop floating rotors and i am very happy with them.Look 200% better than the stock ones.Braking is marginally better but nothing major.

I will be selling mine soon though as i am putting a set of fat daddy 50 spokes wheels on so i have to get the matching rotors and pulley.A real pain as the HD pulley and rotors i have are only fairly new.

Hope this helps.

There are plenty of rotors out there that will fit the deluxe i have American wire wheel polished rotors on mine they make one that matches the laced harley spoked wheel they are not cheap you get what you pay for keep that in mind. Check on line and you will find plenty drag specialties has a bunch also jp cycle any parts dealer has them. M&M cycle is where i bought mine saved a bunch on every thing no matter what brand you buy ask for mark at M&M he knows me well

Bought some chrome laced rotors and pulley to match the profile laced wheels. Check out my gallery. They look great and are reasonably priced. I bought them from American Classic Cycles. I also dropped the goofy hubcap Harley puts on the Deluxe so you can see the nice looking hub on the profile wheel. I cannot remember the brand of rotors and pulley but they will know what you need at American Classic and they have the best prices on just about everything. Best of luck.
