DP Brakes expanding Harley offerings

DP Brakes is expanding its line of replacement high quality stainless steel front rotors for late model touring Harley-Davidson motorcycles.

“Since our introduction of our OEM replacement stainless steel rotors for Harley-Davidsons back in 2013, we have shown excellent interest and demand for late model Touring front fitments for 2014 onwards,” said Larry Mills, president of DP Brakes and Clutches North America. “Therefore, we felt it necessary to expand our line to cover 2014-2018 Touring Front Fitments for FLHT, FLHX, FLTRX and FLHR 2017-2018 which will now complete our rotor lineup.”

Part # for this application will be DP1906F (Drag Specialties part # 1710-3309). MSRP will be $158.95.

“All DP Rotors are designed specifically to provide the rider with improved feel, increased stopping power and an overall upgrade in braking performance,” Mills said. “They are produced from high quality 410 Stainless Steel, and are 100 percent laser cut for precise fitment. Also, they are Blanchard ground for true flatness and an attractive finish.”

“We are also proud to say that all our rotors are Made in the USA. The combination of our industry leading sintered brake pads and these new stainless rotors will significantly improve the overall braking system of your Harley.”

DP Brakes also announced that it is offering brakes that are an upgrade to original equipment for 2018 and earlier Harley-Davidsons.

“Sportsters, Dynas, Softails and FLH’s can all be equipped with DP Brakes. Our fitment list covers Harleys dating back to the early 1970s. We also have added fitments for all the new Street Glide Trikes, Streets, Sportsters and Softail models with new calipers. In addition, DP Brakes are fitted as original equipment on all Performance Machine (PM) and HHI (Hawg Halters) calipers. Plus, they are very popular for those dealers servicing police bikes and H-D rental companies worldwide.”

According to Mills, the DP957, DP962, DP986 and DP987 are the popular DP Brakes replacements for those newer 2000 and later calipers.

“After extensive Dyno and highway testing, the results once again proved that DP Brake pads have shorter stopping distances and improved overall performance,” Mills added. “Customers will experience fade free performance under all conditions. In addition, they are quiet, dust free, and non-abusive to the rotors.”
