Bigger disks might mean different forks or a complex brackett to convert the calper mount to it's new home / differnt calipers. - you'd need to alter more than just the disks. Have you tried experimenting with better brake pads?

I would have thought the discs on a 650 would be adequate. I get by with one on the 550.
If it's cosmetics why not get them drilled?

It was to fit some different callipers which where nearly imps able to position with anuf  disk touching the pad. I decided to restore the original calipers instead
