Thanks. That's really helpful.
Basically this is what I was looking into previously - and has prompted another investigation:

A few people have done it on Triumphrat. The guy in the YT video is English though, which is good as there are things like the fork cartridge mod using one of the old yamaha(?) models that seems easier and cheaper to do State-side.
The caliper I posted looked the same as the YT, bar the extra nuts.
Also worth pointing out that I think the reason people like that caliper swap, is that it's better, without being so much better that you then have to think about extra bracing, etc. and keeps it proportional to the bike.
