I know they used the same caliper on several models. Unfortunately the only one I know is the FJ 1200. But that model is older than the D9 so is probably not much help. Others on here might know more models, so keep popping back.

I believe the Thundercat used the same caliper as did the FZR600. Vmax ones look identical too. Also Bulldog GTS1000 FZR1000 TDM850. Wish I knew of alternative ones to fit! I recently rebuilt mine which was well worth it, was getting sick of the juddery rear brake and it seemed prone to sticking. Was just an excess of corrosion under the dust seals pistons were clean and tidy.
Fairly difficult to get apart but I've bought a caliper piston tool set recently which really makes it easier, only problem being the Diversion rear pistons are bigger than the largest piston puller in the kit so I shimmed it out with some steel from an old bed frame and was able to remove them.
I don't expect it'll be too long before it needs stripping again though the red rubber grease should keep it clean of corrosion for a while.
