The question is... why? What are the differences?

It shouldn't be hard to retrofit those parts (though it might cost a few hundred to do).

Also, dual disks just look better to me, more balanced. I think it is lame that manufacturers don't just add another brake.
should be easy enough... it's not a real complex thing to add another disc and rotor... just split the hose and make sure you have enough pressure...

just need to bolt up another rotor on the other side...
wish i knew what i was talking about ... heh
