The following was posted earlier as the bulletin sent to dealers. (Thanks to all who helped) I took mine to the dealer with this in hand a few months ago and they carried it out. Problem is fixed, and I finally have excellent brakes.
Good luck.

SPEED TRIPLE 1050 FRONT BRAKE

Re: Speed Triple 1050 front brake - increased lever travel. Machines built prior to Vin: 253302.

A small number of Speed Triple customers of bikes built prior to Vin 253302 are reporting dissatisfaction with the Speed Triple 1050 radial front brake and for reasons of customer goodwill, we would like to confirm our wish to satisfy these owners.

The reported issue is that of control lever travel variation which has been a concern of some customers, to the extent that we have modified later Speed Triple models to accommodate our customers’ requirements.

For clarity we wish to confirm that the enhancement fitted on the latest models is available to customers who purchased 1050 Speed Triples prior to VIN 253302 as a goodwill gesture. This involves the installation of coated caliper pistons to the front brake calipers only. Please carry out this work for any customers’ who express any concerns.

How to claim modification costs from us:

For convenience, please use the Warranty On Line system to process this goodwill work using:

claim type "GOODWILL",

fault code 02020291 and

repair code 12020205.

This new repair code covers the time to modify 2 caliper assemblies and the admin credit element. Please conduct a Full Download from tomorrow onwards to capture these new codes.

Yeah, the '06 fix is calipers, not the M/C. I kept my Nissin calipers -- in the garage. Have heard the factory fix has spotty results. Just went to Brembos which is what they should have used from day one IMHO.
