Brake Caliper Upgrade

Is it possible to swap the std calipers for something with a little more stopping power / bling? I have considered hunting for a set of factory / RSVR forks and calipers but understand they aren't a straight swap. I'd love a factory (gen 1) but they seem to be like hens teeth.
 
Have you tried upgrading your pads to something with more bite, but don't need to warm up (else they are dangerous on the road)? Like EBC Double-H superbike pads?
- I haven't used them personally, so
glad of any feedback, but there are a range of high speed road suitable pads which may help more than changing your disks.
 
I didn't consider changing pads but will give it a go rather than shelling about for calipers. I'll take a look at the double h pads :)
 
I took RSVR factory front and and installed on my Tuono. Ohlins have larger diameter than my stock Tuono so just required me to source a Tuono Factory top triple tree. Otherwise it was a direct drop in.
 
If you can't source factory front then clean up those front calipers and get better pads for that bite like Paul D suggested
