I did and would suggest it. I reattached them with chorme hardware.

 

I mounted floating rotors and braided brake lines on my Ultra Classic. What a difference!This is a much better investment than chrome.

 

Does the smooth chrome/polished surface reduce stopping power, at all?
Thanks

 

No...the pads will cut right into the polished finish.

The part that contacts your pad won't be polished after a few miles.

My wilwoods came black anodized on the whole rotor and they wore thru the finish in one ride.
