Default Need a new rotor for brake FXR2 upgrade

I just ordered a Brembo adapter bracket from Ramjet Racing, a caliper, rebuild kit (to clear out any dot4 residue) and a new set of Lyndall pads. Since I’m going that route I figure I’ll get a new rotor as well and start fresh on the front brake.

Can anyone suggest a standard 11.5” floating rotor? I hear EBC are good but I can’t decipher part numbers and options…

Any recommendations will be appreciated. Tx.

I'm pretty sure Harley still sells the floating Thunderstar rotor in the Accessories catalog, if not I see OEM ones pop up all the time on ebay and if you have Instagram you can look a bunch of fxr and dyna part trader pages.

I did check that and they are NLA unfortunately, but I did find a good looking EBC rotor which I ordered from Dennis Kirk, so we’ll see how that goes next week…

No, for my front single caliper.
