Default HD part # 41830-05 & 41831-05

I bought these for my bike. Left & right front polished rotors. I'm going with a custom front wheel and these won't work. They have never been mounted and are for sale. 'pm' me if interested. The same rotors look almost new on my wifes FatBoy after 3 seasons. They are not floaters.

Interesting all comments about form.
What about function?

Has braking distance increased - same pad compound used before and after?
Any rotor warping from retained heat?
Brake fluid temperature increase or brake fade on downhills?

Could be "cruising" on road these items do not reveal themselves as the brakes are not taxed to any limit.

Anyway FWIW just a comment from a different perspective.

Zero difference in performance. It's a stock rotor, polished to look nice.
