        Anything is possible, i've seen rx's with front and rear disc so just find a good mechanic and he'll do it for you, as far as i know u may have to change the rim's.

          Question is, do you really need it???

          Can a little better braking technique on your part, resolve this issue??

          Or you like the rear to hang out everytime you need to slow down???

            I second JD.

            A friend of mine bought a ZMR and guess what, even he wants to change his rear unit to the ZMA, he says the disk on the rear is too dangerous.

            I guess one should learn the technique of braking a bit better rather than taking a step back.

              Rear disk is not required for a 150cc bike.

                Disk brakes that too on rear isn't worth of much because 70% of braking comes from front..
                Existing drum types are more than enough to handle rest of 30%
                Learn to brake the best way possible.
                If still not satisfied, go for soft compound brake pads, tyres, steel braided brake lines, etc.
