    A few bad reviews on them sweating but most people that have them say it's very minimal, they are not supposed to be for road use but not an mot failure, I will be getting one just not got round to it yet

    Hi Ray

    I really like this set up. If you have time can you send me the info on what you have done, so i can shamelessly steal your idea?

    Hi Ray, sorry I posted on Arthur's set up which I also like. Can you advise on what you used sources etc? Thanks mate, really neat solution.

    Hi Mike,

    Thanks, I also have a Monster sock for it but I'm not sure if it would look right or not?

    Unfortunately I got my reservoir off of Bats, and he can't remember where he bought it.

    There are other companies that make the same style with a viewing window, but they are not cheap.

    Here is a GSG one:
    Brake Reservoirs Honda. Wild Hair Accessories. Motorcycle Accessories & Aftermarket European Parts.

    GSG Mototecknik homepage:
    Google Translate

    Here is one fitted to a 600RR:
    GSG Rear Res ON!!!!! : Honda CBR 600RR Sportbike Forum : 600RR.Net

    Another page of ideas:

    Very neat.

    Can I ask where you got that from mate. Reason I ask is I have a mate who is thinking of removing his pillion pegs, and was looking for something similar to what you have.

    forgot to add it was little tight to the swingarm with the standard pegs so spaced them out a couple of mm, but fine with my gb moto rearsets
