I've studied Vintage Brakes chart for quite awhile, and found an 11mm master at Mikes XS for a decent price.  I'd really like to get a Brembo MC, maybe even a radial  ;D but that gets into big bucks then, lol. 

I was really serious about doing a dual disc setup, but I think the weight gain would probably offset the increased braking, because that early Honda stuff is HEAVY!!  :o

vintage and mikes xs are the same guy/co. Call Michael, he stocks more than what is shown online. The brembo was very reasonable.
