Is this a 4 cylinder? I doubt there is anything modern that will bolt on as the pattern and diameter is unusual.. EBC makes aftermarket disks that will bolt on and work well that are stock size. MD4010LS and MD4010RS one for each side. I believe the ZG1200 also used the same disc pattern and the disks may be slightly bigger but I cannot confirm that.

This rotor is listed for $66 but is normally like $150. I had this happen to me before on amazon while looking at EBC disks. I scored a set of EBC KZ650 rotors earlier this year for $50 shipped brand new from amazon in the box and immediately sold them for WAY more.

You'll get better results by ugrading the calipers than the discs. Stock khi disc's are pretty good if the surface is not shot. Easily re ground smootb again. If your after saving un sprung weight twin disc set ups use thinner discs and are considerably lighter.


Z1000J2 somewhat modified!
