Triumph immediately addressed and solved the brake-squealing issue for the 2017 model with the addition of the rubber dampers shown above, but I am not aware that they ever made any changes to the instrument bezels.
Otherwise, yes, what you're describing is exactly what I am hoping for here; namely, that someone from some other country that still receives the CB1100 EX or CB1100 RS might steer me in the right direction, fix-wise. I know that Cormanus is in Australia, jtopiso is in Spain, alprider is in Italy, countless people here are from Canada, etc. There is a wealth of knowledge here, plus there's that CB1100 aftermarket company in Japan that everyone here recommends.
Just casting lines, hoping something will bite.
I have the 17'RS, and I don't think it has any rubber damping. I don't recall seeing any rubber part in that area. It also doesn't have the squeal problem (it only has 10.000km in the clock).
However: RS brakes are floating rotors and fixed calipers, while the EX and previous models I think they are fixed rotors and floating calipers.
