OK... Cheers again for all of your help below guys. I have managed to get my hands on a set of s2r1000 low mileage calipers & am currently eyeing off a mew master:

although at this point i am unsure if they will fit (still waiting for part numbers). As for rotors, i will keep an eye out as 2nd hand (even low mileage) brake parts make me a little nervous.

I will post some pics/details eventually

i was looking at madalfs bike (i think) recently and it had a 15mm master cyl - the number is stamped under the lever pivot boss - which is the same as some of the 748R had for instance.  so i don't think i'd bother with the master change, not initially anyway.  most 4 pot bikes have 16mm masters, and the later radial style are 19mm i think.

as paul says, any 320mm disc with 6 bolts from 1989 onward excepting 748R will work just fine.  some yamaha fzr/yzf used the same discs too.

those af1 calipers are cheap for new, and af1 are very good to deal with.  they're great calipers.

Little bit of thread dig here :)
concerning the 748r rotors, is the only difference the offset? if the 748r rotors are 15mm offset and std late model monster being 10mm, i propose i could use some 748r rotors to complete my sbk fork conversion without spacers....

does this sound plausible or is there simething like the width of the friction area of the disc that also changes from these models?

and yes i understand 748r rotors wouldnt exactly be easy pickings at the local wreakers but i have sourced a new 2nd hand set for the right price.
