Any alternate front master cylinder?

Hi gents,
Yesterday I drow more than 600km of funny mountain roads with my 80' CBX at a ver high ritm. All my mates drown modern bikes such as Bmw, Triumph, ...It was really fantastic but..... I arrived so tired due to the wood feel of my front brake master cylinder. I have metallic lines, new caliper and master cylinder seals, and new brembo blue pads. I bleeded quite well my lines but the final lever feel is still with a wooden soft taste.
I also own other classic bikes (Kz 1000, KZ650, KZ 400, ....) with a brake effectiveness not so effective as in modern bikes, but at least the front brake lever taste is so strong.
Does have any other alternate front brake master cylinder with a modern brake lever feel, fully compatible with the rest of my original low handlebar set?
Does you have any good references of such alternate front master cylinder?
Regards, Juan
