Dual caliper brake options.

So finally got my bike out of storage after toasting the transmition. New gear set in but still need the clutch adjusted and the new carbs that have been sitting in a box for over a year (old ones won't stop pissing fuel). But I also managed to find a spoked 750f rear wheel so I will finally be getting my rear disk swap done but I would like to improve my forn breaking a bit. Dose anybody know of a dual piston swap that is workable on our bikes. I'm trying to avoid a gl front end but would be open to swaping the fork lowers from a f2 if that would get me better brakes while maintaining the look.

The F2 front end is closest to a bolt on swap, they also can fit dual piston calipers. a lot of guys have done the dual stock 750 brakes. I also hear the dual 550 discs and calipers are a nice setup, they bolt on and are lighter than 750 brakes.

There is an extensive thread somewhere here about using modern calipers on F2 forks.
