Default Galfer Wave Rotors for 2014 and newer front wheels

We are seeking input on getting these Galfer Wave front rotors made for 2014 and newer stock front touring wheels. These gorgeous rotors really enhance the looks of the front end will enable stronger stopping power to boot.

I am gauging interest to see if this will be something guys with new touring bikes would be interested in installing on their bikes. There are no pics of this rotor on that wheel as of yet as these rotors are not available in 11.8 right now but this pic will give you an idea of what they look like.

Looks nice - I'd really like to see some agitator rotors with black centers and RAW, unpolished, non plated rotors, just plain stainless steel

Hog Pro , you may want to update this post with the photo you posted on instagram of the Galfer Wave rotors installed on the 2014 touring front wheel.

I updated the pics above as these rotors have arrived. These only fit touring wheels for 2014 and newer. The problem with Agitator rotors is that they have a unique bolt pattern which means they will only fit that wheel. There is not enough interest to justify spending the money to engineer and design an rotor for the Agitator.

This new version is really just a cosmetic upgrade. The look is an acquired taste. I love the way they look. We'll see how they sell. The full floating Galfers that fit 2013 and earlier are a huge upgrade from stock on those bikes.

Is that the actual rotor or a stock photo? Galfer is showing DF835CW for 2014 touring bikes.

That number fits up to 2013. That photo should be correct for the 2014 fitment. I have the df835cw's on the front of my 08 and they have a black carrier that will not work on the 14 and newer bikes. I can say that I had stock rotors and then had sunstar full floaters and now the galfers, the galfers are the best I have used so far on my bike. I have also used the LRB composite rotors on a 14 with the LR gold pads and I feel the galfers are superior to the LRB composite but that's my opinion.

That's interesting, downloaded the application spreadsheet Galfer has, and it shows DF835CW for the 2014 Street Glide.........but if you look closer it also shows that number for 2013 models.........which obviously isn't right.
