did you replace the spring on the top of the fork?

you can adjust the play in the pedal if you look above the pedal there is a bar whcih goes into the master cylinder.. iirc a 6mm spanner groove on the bar and a 10mm spanner on the lock nut.. about 2~3cm of free play on the top of the pedal is about right.. but cannot remember the exact book free play.

It probably not this, but dont forget to check the simple things ... like the pedal could be catching on the floor mat (if there's one there of course).

underneath the intercooler there should be a spring on the top of the fork..
