Yes, this is the correct manual. BF135 is simply the marketing name on the engine cover, while BF135A is the technical model code found on the serial number plate. For the 2006 model year, every single unit produced was technically a BF135A.
Regarding the date, this manual was published in late 2003 to support the launch of this engine generation in 2004. Honda outboard generations run for many years without major changes, and the "A" series ran unchanged until roughly 2010.
Mechanically, a 2003/2004 engine is identical to your 2006 model. The block, the PGM-FI fuel injection, the lower unit, and the wiring are all the same, so this is the correct factory manual for your motor.
