Hiya mate, PC problems so I've not been on here for a wee while 
I don't have any photos of the brake mod but will post them up. It's been done two ways....
1: As per the old site where the front edge of the retaining spring is hammered flat and the excess length ground off. This lets the back portion of the spring force the pads onto the front face of the caliper rather than rocking into said face every time the brakes are used.
2: I've done this differently on my R6 (same caliper) where I've placed a strip of firm stainless steel banding between the pads and the front of the spring and this sits on the caliper body. Not as tidy but as effective and really quick to do. Also the springs aren't altered in any way.
HTH.... Baz
