Have you had hd flip your rotors. It is a TSB on the street glides to have them flipped. If you do the screech will be gone. Also new brake pads would work well for you as well.

Are HD floating rotors true floating rotors ??
I heard and read they are solidly attached but with high precision screws/rivets installed,
so do they really move like a floating rotor is suppose to do??

thx...
