The triple looks pretty good ( well, other than the tall sissy bar )

There is a easy front brake upgrade, it uses a EX caliper , a simple mounting plate and a ex master cylinder ( if you want to upgrade that too )

From this vast collection of triple info

That's definitely something I'd do- at least, mount up a second front brake. Doubt he'll go for it though. And I really hate that sissy bar It's just in the way all the time.

I did the brake upgrade on my '73 H1. I got a '07 Ninja 250 master cylinder and caliper off Ebay for about $50.

It even came with the original rubber brake line that fit
