[11 CVO Convertible]

I have a 2011 CVO Softail that I'm adding some power to, so I need to upgrade the front brakes.  I've already put the Lyndall Gold pads on the front and I'm not impressed.  I would like to put a 13" front rotor on it and try it with the stock calipers and Lyndall pads first.  I've found the adapters to move the stock calipers outward to compensate for the larger rotor, but I'm looking for a 13" floating rotor for cheap that will fit the stock softail wheel.  I'm trying to avoid dropping another $700 on a complete HHI kit....I'm getting WAY too much money stuck in this bike.

Any suggestions?

Just replaced my brakes on the cvo dyna with Lyndall Z plus pads and really like them over the stock ones they stop great....  I think i read on their site that the Gold pads should be used in conjuction with a specific type rotor and not used with stock rotor this may be why u are unhappy with the Lyndall pads...    I also drag one foot in bad brakeing  situations....

Nope, Reds are specifically formulated for their composite rotors.  Gold are the most aggressive they make and are suitable for stainless rotors.
