Bikers Choice 11.5″ Rear Drilled Rotor for Big Twin and XL
The Bikers Choice 79–99 Big Twin / XL 11.5 Inch Rear 5 Spoke Drilled Stainless Rotor is built for riders who know how important rear braking feel really is. On a heavier V-twin, the rear brake is more than just stopping. It’s about balance, control, and confidence—especially at low speeds, in traffic, or when riding two-up.If your current rotor feels rough, pulses under your foot, or appears worn and discolored, this 11.5-inch drilled rear rotor is designed to restore your biketo smooth, predictable braking. It is a direct-fit replacement for select Big Twin and XL models, made to perform the way a proper Harley rear brake should.
Real-World Braking, Not Just Specs on Paper
Until a rear rotor is replaced, many riders are unaware of how bad it has gotten. Older rotors become glazed over. They retain heat. They don't wear pads evenly. These issues are resolved by this rotor's precisely drilled stainless steel construction, which keeps it cooler and wears more uniformly over time.On long rides or in stop-and-go traffic, heat builds up quickly. Because of the drilled holes that help release heat and brake dust, the brake pedal stays steady. This implies that there won't be any sudden grab, fading feel, or surprises when you need to slow down smoothly.
Stainless Steel That Handles Real Riding Conditions
Rear brakes have a difficult life. Time, heat, road dirt, and water spray all have an adverse effect. For this reason, stainless steel rather than mild steel is used to make this rotor. For bikes that see actual miles rather than just garage time, stainless is far more resistant to rust and corrosion.The surface stays cleaner. Pad contact stays even. And the rotor keeps its strength and shape ride after ride.
Designed for Classic Harley Fit and Feel
This rotor is designed for 1979–1999 Big Twin models and XL Sportsters that use an 11.5-inch rear rotor with 5-spoke wheels. Fitment matters with braking parts, and this rotor is engineered to align correctly, spin true, and work smoothly with stock-style calipers and pads.When installed correctly, it helps reduce vibration, protects your brake pads from uneven wear, and restores that solid, confident pedal feel riders expect.
Always verify year, model, and rear brake specifications before installation.
