hi, is it possible to but a rear disc from an r6 onto a thundercat? Seen a few things that suggest this is possible but thought Id ask before splashing out.
Would either of these be suitable?

Out of interest, why? When the caliper is clean the rear brake on the Thundercat is one of the better ones on a sports bike.

ABE discs imo. Had a new set recently, never looked back. Not cheap, but British quality. Brakes and tyres is something I'd never ever cheap on.
