the 600 will be 5.5" i believe where 1k has 6" rim

but anything is possible but need custom made spacers and stuff

blah you talking about the front, my comment was about rear

both use 310mm discs so discs should be same

and wouldn't surprise me that it would bolt straight up, but have no idea , maybe shaun would know,

Near all Japanese radial calipers are 108mm centres so most will interchange including the Yamaha ones (if you are interested in the various piston/Mc sizings for different ratio's )

The 600 and 1000 discs have different part numbers but that is probably a thinner rotor on the 600 ?
The axles should be the same,i think they share the same 207mm centre triple clamps (the 1000 has Kayaba and the 600/750 have Showa forks - iirc)

R1/R6 radials bolt straight on to the Suzuki/Kayaba/Showa forks (for what it is worth)

Correct!, my bad, the discs are a different part #. The wheels and the calipers, however, are the same
