Mines always been soft on the pedal. Had the system bled, new pads all round which made a very slight difference for about a week, then back to Mr softy!

Just read about the fuel getting low when it was cold, maybe, just maybe the pump dragged a load of crap from the bottom of your tank which now lives in the filter blocking some fuel flow?

My old Shogun didn't have one, the screen needed replacing and when they brought the new one out the glass had one.

Probably just the make of glass manufacturer maybe?
