I'm not sure I understand how a piece of sand got between the rotor and the wheel. When I checked mine you couldn't get a piece of paper between the rotor and where it's mated to the wheel. I guess I'm not understanding what was written. As far as I know all discs bolt to the wheel the same way. It's the upper half that's the "floater", the actual disc. If I am mistaken some one correct me.
Here's a pic of the rotor in it's normal resting state...........
And here it is with me pushing the rotor away from the wheel........
And here's the parts diagram from HD's site.....
Not sure of the exact measurement of the gap that is possible, but it's big enough for a very small rock, not just sand.[/QUOTE]
I understand now. My. bad. Your rotors bolt to the wheel entirely different than mine.

Good stuff - thanks for posting!
I look forward to the day when I'm able to stay out on the road for months. Not retired yet, but getting a lot of "rehearsal time" in to be sure I'm ready when the time comes.
