Just measured the Z1000A2 original rear disc - 290mm diameter x 6.6mm thick.

According to Dave Marsden's Original Z1, Z900 & KZ900 book, which I read last night - The Z900 Ltd got a smaller rear disc - 278mm diameter.

link to Z900 ltd rear disc on ebay - description states 280mm diameter.

link to Z1000 ltd rear disc on ebay - description states 280mm diameter.

so 278mm diameter must be for Z900 or Z1000 ltd models.
