Performance brakes for me 81' special. need help please

[desmodromic]

Hi,

I've been looking for bigger disc for front and rear. Anyone know of rotors that might be interchangeable from other bikes or just high performance rotors? I am not using the OEM brakes/calipers. I and using Brembo monoblocs in the front and a D16RR caliper in the rear. I know this is not a race bike, but I live in NYC so you have to make emergency stops often. I am not concerned about fabricating in order to make the calipers fit.
Thanks

Have a read of this link:

As you read through, you will find a list of compatible brake rotors..........Ducati as example.
