Royal Enfield Classic 350 now gets a rear disc brake as standard. The powerful motorcycle is evolving into a safer machine day by day, first with the introduction of a rear disc brake for Redditch and Gunmetal Grey and then with ABS on the Signals Edition. The Classic series, including 500 models, are available with front and rear disc brake as standard. The bigger version also comes with ABS on all variants while 350 Signals is the only one from the 346cc series to get the feature. Royal Enfield is expected to equip the complete Thunderbird series with ABS in the coming days. The Classic series is divided into two parts, one carrying the carburetor-fed 346cc engine and the other one with a 499cc fuel injected unit. The latter one is divided into Classic 500 Black, Squadron Blue, Desert Storm, Chrome and Stealth Black shade. The special versions are priced higher than the standard Black version. On the other hand, Classic 350 comes in standard shades, Redditch, Gunmetal Grey, and Signals Edition. Here, the dual disc variant is priced at INR 1.47 lakh, taking the on-road price tag up by a considerable amount. The ABS version is priced INR 15,000 above the given point.

Royal Enfield has discontinued the Blue shade from the 350cc and Tan shade from the 500cc variant. The 346cc, single cylinder engine is good for 19.8 BHP and 28 Nm of torque. The engine comes mated to a 5-speed gearbox with no added equipment like slipper clutch. Source

You're asking if it's possible to install rear disc brakes on your Suzuki Gixxer SF. Well, technically it is possible but we would advice against it for three reasons:
  1. Third party installed disc brakes don't offer the same effectiveness as the manufacturer installed ones.
  2. Cost involved is very high
  3. Suzuki is on the verge of launching a dic brake variant of the Gixxer SF.
Given the above reasons, the entire procedure of installing disc brakes on your bike is just not worth it.
