Can someone explain floating rotors to me not to sound like I Dumb A$$ but what is the theory behind them?

 

Sure,
Step 1: Remove wheel
Step 2: Remove rotors
Step 3: Go to dealer and exchange for polished rotors
Step 4: Install rotors
Step 5: Install wheels

What I actually did was I bought the wheels, tires, and rotors at a dealer that went out of business for 40% off. So they mounted the tires and rotors to the wheels, and balanced them. I took them home and installed them.

 

Ah, I see. I thought you had polished them yourself

 

Yep, that's what he said," I polished the stock rotors."

I did the stock rotor exchange with ***** shiny, $100 bux,
and they look better than the HD Floating chrome ones which look like chit IMO.

 

Ok, I exchanged my stock rotors for polished. It was cheaper than doing myself.

 

There are a few threads on polishing rotors over in the general discussion area. I read up on the procedure and went out and bought the different grit sand papers to be used. Got home and started to polish according to the directions. After about a half an hour on one side of one rotor I was convinced to send them off to ***** Shiny. He did a great job on them and I highly recommend him. Too much work, in my opinion, to do them yourself.

 

And "I painted my bike" doesn't necessarily mean that the person painted it himself. He caused it to be painted. I didn't mean to infer that I polished them myself. Sorry for the confusion.

 

Oh, ok I'll interpret it that you had someone else do it then.....based on what you said.. Right??
That makes sense(NOT)..
and that's my interpretation..

 

Good thing you're not interpreting at the UN.

 

I've never been any good @ politics..
I can barely bullshit myself let alone anyone else..
Tis' what it tis', amwutams...
