tokico makes the front brakes for the 12 & BUSA
some of the parts are interchangeable i dont know why youd want busa rotors
as opposed to 12 rotors
the master cylinders or the calipers might interchange

cheap & easy could lead to a major mishap
if you insist on going that route
be ceratin of sevearl things
the diameter of the rotors first & foremost
then the thickness of the rotors
be sure to measure the thickness as they changed some years & models
mixing & matching has more disadvantages than advantages
good luck with that

its a sfe bet no one is going to go out on a limb &
tell you its ok on a bike that has that type of speed potential
brake failure only makes the undertaker happy
most people if they are considering doing anything remotely as i
think you might be talking about
swap the complete whole set up to avoid ANY problems
mixing & matching.......................................................... i wouldnt

I'm sure the Y2K rotors are the same as well as the calipers.
(I know a guy who did the swap after wrecking his 00'.)
Brake lines and levers as well (I think, not sure.)
Then you have a Kawauki! :l)
