Jack,
I went to the DBA web site and searched through the retailers. Found these
guys in Australia with an on-line ordering system.
http://www.discpads.com/default.asp They carry the DBA TR4/4A/5/6 rotors.
They run about $69 ea before shipping.
Hope this helps,
Hugh Barber

Thanks for the info -- I called them and they do not supply Triumph rotors.
Thanks anyway.
