Why can't you buy one chrome HD Brembo caliper? 42013-06A left, 42014-06A right

How about adding a 6 piston Performance Machine caliper?
I run one on my SG.
STRONG brake!

4 piston Brembo VS. 6 piston PM

I'll take the PM.
I have the PM on my SG.
I have the stock Brembo setup on my RG.
The twin 4's of the Brembo are no stronger than the single 6 PM.
HOWEVER...I did change the master cylinder to match the single brake.
You need to get the bore sizes of the MC's to match the single caliper.
In other words, it'd be most beneficial to install a Softail MC to achieve the most braking power.

DISCLAIMER: To those of you that are going to flame me because of MY opinion, remember, this is MY opinion. I have experience with BOTH setup's...do YOU?
