Easier with a pic. Does it have 6 bolts for the brake rotor? If so, then yes. Otherwise it can still be done but you've got to make changes--not worth it.

No, at least not a straight swap and with your speedo working.
S2R doesn't have the speedo drive cutout machined into the left-side of the wheel and I think it also has 5 hole disc mounting so you would need to get some compatible, 10mm offset discs.

no speedo required; I have a space - this would be for my track bike

The above being the case I think it will fit OK. You'll likely need a new spacer on the LH side though.
