      While doing a search I came across this tread so I wont start another , Ill add here.

      I have been looking for the same thing. now I think if you have done the vrf rear wheel mod I think you may be able to use a vfr rotor.

      This has only been internet reseach I will have to go to my local dealer with my calipers to do some measuring on a vfr, However if there is some one here who ones both bikes do us all a favor one day and see if they are in fact inter changeable! Ill keep the reseach going on my side!

      Cheers

        Remember:
        Doing the VFR rear wheel conversion normally uses the Hawk spindle which is modified. The rotor bolts to that spindle.

        Also, if the diameter is different, then the caliper mount might need to change.

        Jsut a thought.

          I think the differance in the rotor is, On a hawk rotor the wheel studs are bolted in so the rotor has been cut away to allow room for the bolt head,
          and the VFR wheel studs only need a relief in the rotor to clear.

          Agian this is all speculation untill I start measuring but if someone has more info or has tried this I would love to hear!

          Cheers

            i think nt696 has a point the diameter might be different.

            also remember someone saying a f2 rear rotor has the same mounting pattern another idea to investigate

              On Wemoto's site they show an EBC rear disc replacement
