Default What are the best/most recommended brake rotors?

I did a search for opinions on floating rotors. Most of the threads are just guys asking what floating rotors are. I want to buy some for my 2008 FLHRC wit ABS. What rotors do you guys use? What do you recommend?

I plan on buying Lyndall's Gold Plus pads. I've looked at their rotors, and I assume that their rotors will work best with the pads, but as with everything else on the bike, that may not necessarily be true, which is why I asking for opinions on rotors. Of course, if there are other opinions on pads, I'll take those as well but I'm fairly confident that the general consensus is that Lyndall makes the best brake pads for Harleys.

Thanks.

I would be careful. The brake setup that you have works very well as is.

Remember that the brakes and discs on the 08's are made by Brembo, not HD.

Lots of opinions on brakes. Some of these companies are experts at separating you from your money for no good reason.

My bike stops on a dime, no skids/antlock brakes. Just stock.

Brembo setup is awfully hard to beat.
