It never ceases to amaze us here at EBC that solid or non floating rotors are still being fitted to modern motorcycles for cost savings reasons when there is such a ready technology with the polished stainless floating rotor for Big Twins at hand to replace them.
EBC produce a complete range of floating rotors for modern big twins and some tasty floating rotor conversions for solid units that will improve your brakes and offset the chance of vibration.
Rotors are all made in the UK using stainless steel usually with polished stainless steel centre hubs and are assembled using the unique EBC SD System square drive button technology. EBC front floating rotors feature 5 or 9 button designs whereas rear rotors can include up to 12 drive buttons to provide a sturdy looking and robust unit worthy of its heavy duty application.
Always use new pads when replacing rotors, the use of old or worn pads can cause hot spots or glazing of the rotor and will promote brake fade and loss of brake.
For front or rear see the table below for shapes and sizes available and how to order thru your favourite dealer.
EBC Stainless Steel Custom Rotors for American Motorcycles
All rotors fit standard 5 bolt hubs and are 11.5″/292mm diameter.

EBC Brakes polished stainless rotors for Big Twins can be ordered from any stockist or purchased ONLINE in the UK at:
Custom Polished brake rotors for American motorcycles The New EBC range of high lustre brake rotors featuring stainless steel brake rotor rings/blades and a polished stainless steel centre hub. Newer units feature the contoured profile and slotted rotor profile as shown opposite which greatly improves pad break-in and reduces rotor damage (rotor galling). The reason we have opted for stainless steel centre hubs is due to the weight and heavy duty nature of larger American motorcycles often using twin cylinder technology which can lead to more vibration or frame shake.
We now offer a range of 5 spoke solid brake rotors (type 1) and a choice of 5 spoke floating rotors (type 2) in full circle rotor blade design or contoured profile blade design (type 3).

We now offer a choice of full circle profile (type 5) or contoured profile (type 4) and both units feature the sturdy 10 button EBC riveted system.
Click on the BIG TWIN ARTICLE button below to view more info.
Rivets, washers and spring pressure washers plus both the hub and the rotor blade are stainless steel, no rusty rotors with EBC’s new deluxe American motorcycle range.
Most models now feature new EBC patented S-Drive system
What is S-Drive? EBC’s new square sided drive button system completely eliminates the chance of rotor warping, extends rotor life and improves consistency of brake effect.
