Default Reaper Rotors 2010 Road Glide

Just put some Reaper wheels on my 2010 Road Glide and these rotors suck! I made a bad assumption that they would be polished when they were installed..........shame on me! Now as i look on the HD website they are showing these same style rotors but it says they are polished. Part #41500012 it states this is a new item. So the question is can i assume if i order these new rotors they will look better than these?

Thanks.

I believe they are more polished, however I'm not the one to ask about that. However, since it looks like you've already ridden with these unpolished versions, why not just have them polished? Most any chrome shop can do the polishing for you. Even if they don't get all of the small scratches out, you're gonna have new ones any way, so no worry. I've had my stockers polished before and turned out great! Don't know how much they're getting now tho, I would think it'd be cheaper than having to buy a new polished set.

BTW, the new wheels look great!

Is there a rim behind those rotors?

That's why I go with a 21" for the front, so I can see the rim.

Yeah found them bu accident while looking at some chromed FXD wheels, cant vouch for their quality though, I normally use chrome pros but their prices have jumped a bit since my Ultra wheels.
