I'd like one, though I already have Wildwood ultralight calipers. I probably
will need to do something that seems a little more legal.

I've written a Tech article for the VTR magazine describing this
conversion. It uses Toyota pickup front calipers, which are very
easy to find rebuilt at most auto parts stores. These are four
piston calipers, with much larger pads. The conversion retains
the Triumph solid rotor, however. If you'd like, I can send you
a copy of this article.
