I have got to replace my front rotors (discs) are the fzr600r discs compatible with anything else? the newer yzf600 discs are bigger and mount differently :headscratch: i have looked at the wiki and the foxeye 94/95 is not shown can anyone help?

This will sound strange but the rotors are the same as what was used on the pre fox eye 89-93 FZR 600. Part number should be 4HM-2581T-11-00 if my research is right. If you get non yamaha rotors (like EBC or Galfer) then getting a set for a FZR600 or US Spec 94-95 YZF600R should do the trick.

Hope that helps

D,
You will need to look at the Mico-fiche' for the foxeye series there should be a link to M-fiche' in the WIKI get the part number for the disk then compare that to the '90+ series of FZR's they should be the same BUT I am not sure.

Even if the discs are bigger once the mounting holes are the same you are cool you then just need to make a caliper mating plate to suit
To give you an idea take a look at:

You will see with all the RD's Blue streak etc the discs were never native to that model .

When you find the answer please contact me OR put the info in the WIKI for all the other guys & gals who come after you.
Thanks
