Wheel/Roter/Pully question
Hope someone can help me here. I have decided to change my wheels to polished solid rims on my 05 Fatboy. So figure at the same time I might as well change my Rotors, Pulley and calipers. I don't know much about this though. Like I said I am going to go with solid chrome wheels, the guy gave me a price on a solid chrome pulley too, but don't know about rotors. I see there are floating rotors and regular ones I guess. Which are better and what are the differences. I can’t seem to find that info anywhere. Also when trying to find that info I came across an "inside/out break pulley kit". Anyone have any thoughts on these? It might clean up the back end a bit.....I don’t know. Here is a link http://www.customchrome.com/catalogs/CCP2006/0956.html If I don’t go with something like that I need to change my calipers too.......oh man so confused!!!!! If anyone can please help me out here it would be greatly appreciated!

RE: Wheel/Roter/Pully question
The fun never stops hey!
I have seen a few bikes with a pulley/brake setup like that, very custom and great looking I think. IMO I would go with the floating discs and solid pulley. The standard discs are the biggest culprit for brake noise. I am in the process of burning up my rear tire so when I have a new one installed I will do the pulley and brake upgrade. Remember if you have chromed wheels you will see the back of the pulley in the reflection so a solid pulley would be better instead of the cover.
I can't wait to see pictures of your upgrades.
