Yes, the MTX Performance Front Solid Round Brake Disc is designed as a direct replacement for the Original Equipment (OE) brake disc on Harley Davidson FLSTF Fat Boy models from 2000-2014.
The brake disc is constructed from Japanese SUS 420 stainless steel, which is heat-treated to HRC 36+-2 standards for optimal performance and durability.
The drill hole pattern is designed to help vent gases and dissipate heat generated during braking, which improves braking performance and reduces the risk of brake fade.
It is recommended to use brake pads that are compatible with stainless steel brake discs. Consult with your brake pad manufacturer or a professional mechanic to ensure compatibility.
The minimum recommended thickness for this brake disc is 4.5mm. You should replace the disc if it wears down to or below this thickness.
Clean the brake disc regularly with a dedicated motorcycle brake cleaner. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the surface.
A solid disc is a single piece of metal, offering a more robust and simpler design. A floating disc has a separate friction surface that is mounted to a carrier, allowing for expansion and contraction due to heat, which can help prevent warping under extreme conditions. This MTX disc is a solid round type.
This can be caused by uneven pad material transfer, disc contamination, or a warped disc. Ensure the disc is clean, the pads are correctly bedded-in, and inspect the disc for any signs of warping. Check caliper mounting bolts for tightness.
Verify the bedding-in procedure has been completed correctly. Ensure there are no air bubbles in the brake lines and that the brake fluid is at the proper level. Check that the brake pads are compatible and properly seated.
Squealing can sometimes occur with performance brakes. Ensure the disc and pads are clean. Anti-squeal compound may be applied to the back of the brake pads (consult pad manufacturer instructions). Check for proper caliper alignment.
While the design helps dissipate heat, extreme or prolonged heavy braking can still stress the material. Ensure brake fluid is fresh and that caliper pistons are retracting properly to avoid dragging. Check for any obstructions causing excessive drag.
