Only a few people have taken drastic steps like replacing the mastercyl.
One posted up a change to a tasty looking Brembo unit. I believe it's in
the FAQ, or mods part of the triumphnet page. There are some who have
cleaned their caliper pistons and found this helped too. I just try to not
use them :)

Gone, thankfully. Replaced by a dipstick. Which I much rather prefer.

On my '02 I ran the Triumph "break in" oil til about 700 miles, 600 is
recomended. Since I have been using Golden Spectro, which is a semi-synth.
So I guess my vote would be, yes, both.
