i know it could be tricky to put old model bullet wheels to EFI. since the wheel sprocket is on right side.
may be reversing the wheel is possibility ?

No problem flipping the wheel, the wheel itself is pretty much symmetrical and you can get brake plates with the pivot on the top or the bottom part of the plate, that's the smallest problem.

You would need to make provision for the brake-plate torque-reaction (maybe fabricate a torque-arm). You'd need a large enough hole in the swingarm for the quick-detach stub-axle/brake plate attachment. You'd also need to fabricate spacers to get teh chain-line correct. You'd need to make up a brake lever/rod and ensure it fits and you'd need to find some way of stopping the ABS system from having a tantrum when it finds there is a whole brake missing.

Depends on the age of the bike. Not all EFI bullets have ABS, my 2009 model doesn't for instance.

Reading between the lines of the original question, I was assuming it was a disc brake model.
