So, the Lockheeds or/and the Brembos are better than the double pistons calipers from the cb750/900 Boldor's?

IMO they are, but like in every other caliper you do need the right pads.
Better sorry for failing then for the lack of trying.

 Rickman used the Lockheed calipers. Another source if desiring "the look", is early Performance machine, they have the cross ribs and same bolt pattern, plus use GL pads... got to be some of them out there..

Aloha,
On the standard F2 forks with comstars is it possible to put the brembos.
Is this correct? With the use of new brackets.
Is there something else necessary to put the calibers on?

Is it possible to put the brembos p08 on the fork of a goldwing gl1000 using the gl1000 caliber brackets?
Or do you need custom made brackets?
