I bet there will be something that will fit. Otherwise it would be cheaper in long run to make an adaptor than a custom disc, adaptor is only one expense not ongoing.

searched high and low. Being a 4 bolt disc and demnsions being slightly odd comapired to every other bike no one seems to make anything that isnt standard 250mm.
its going to take some thought but just looking at prices atm so i can work out the best way forward, but it wont be done until the summer.

ok now ive been in contact with a company whos prices are pretty good.

but as im stepping up from a solid 250mm disc would you all think it was okay to stay with a solid disc upto 300 or 320mm or should i just go for a floating one?

If you went floating you could use outer from a common one, say GSXR, and just get custom carrier. May be cheaper.

Out of interest why don't you want to use the standard disc?

Good call Dave its going to take some more calls and exact prices to make my final decision.

and im not going to use the standard because its 250mm...which is likely enough for as its going to be mostly road use i would like some more stopping power, and its an SM got to look the part
