Wheel Testing

TORSIONAL LOAD TESTING

The torsional load testing machine simulates starting and stopping, as well as the occasional burn out. Load sensitive rams cycle back and forth replicating real world style torture in an attempt to rip the hub out of the rim.

SIDE LOAD TESTING

Side load testing replicates the incredible stress a wheel is subjected to during cornering. You can trust your RSD wheels will withstand those canyon roads and track days because they’ve come out of the simulated side load test unscathed.

RADIAL LOAD TESTING

The radial load testing machine simulates a load on a tire/wheel assembly while taking miles and miles of road with the occasional beating. The wheel is forced to endure countless rotations with one flaw sending the design back to the drawing board.

IMPACT TESTING

The massive impact testing unit simulates the pot holes and road hazards that a wheel is subjected to in the real world. Each and every wheel design is wrapped with a tire and a hard edge hit is replicated. The wheel must retain air pressure for a specific time in order to pass.

Two Piece Rotors

• High grade 420 stainless steel replaceable outer bands • Billet aluminum CNC-machined inner carriers • Cross drilled bands for increased ventilation • Blanchard ground bands ensure precise and even tolerance • 11.5˝ and 300mm rotors are fixed • 13˝ rotors attach via floating elements • Front rotors are drilled for standard HD bolt pattern 3-1/4˝ X 5˝ X 5/16˝

• Rear rotors are drilled for standard HD bolt pattern • All rotor carriers are counter bored with 2.22˝ I.D • A reducer spacer (part# 1710-0636) is sold separately for 1.985˝ I.D. • Wide rear wheels require use of rotors with 2.50˝ I.D. * RSD rotors will fit 1984-1999 HD applications only if used in conjunction with Performance Machine calipers and RSD wheels * RSD rotors will not work with stock HD wheels * Not available for 2014-16 XL Sportster
