Default Rotors….Which Ones?

My front rotors on my 2012 SG are warped. I still have the stock wheel and I am not ready to pull the trigger on a custom wheel. What rotors is everyone running and how happy are you with them?

I think I'm going to be very happy with these, HD Thunderstar full floating chrome/stainless from Kutter HD online.Actually I call in my orders.Anthony is awesome to work with. I'll try to make this short.But I've gotta tell this. So I had been looking at these for a couple weeks in the'14 catalog, I rode down to my now "only" dealership and asked if I could have a '15 catalog.They said we only have a few and they're for people buying new bikes. (Well screw you) I thought to myself. Can I look at one for a minute? I had just wanted to see if there were any new styles. Nope, But prices went up $50 bucks each on all styles!These are up to &209.So I gave Anthony a call and he said yeah price increases in the new catalog, But I could still order some at their online price that hadn't been increased yet.Get ready...$133.00 each with free shipping! Not sure if they're still available at that price but if so you might want to scoop some up before it's too late.

I have ebc floating polished drilled. Excellent products. No warping after 2 seasons of hard use, frequently in eastern mountains.

Before I installed the agitators I was running EBC floating as well, not too expensive and look a whole hell of a lot better than stock.

Just to add another brand name, I am currently looking into Lyndall composite rotors, although availability seems uncertain at present.

Going in for my 30K service and my third set of front rotors. Second set started to warp with just over 5K on them. I hope the dealer is willing to work something out with me because the stock rotors are crap.

Thank you for all of the replies. I am going to eventually get the HogPro Shelby wheels. They make a matching Shelby 2 piece rotor. This is a picture of the wheel and rotor. What do you guys think of these rotors with my stock wheel until I can pony up the extra $1,000 for the wheel? Has anyone had any experience with HogPro products?

Okay, I ordered the Shelby rotors until I can flip the price tag on the new wheel. I will let you know how it goes.
