    I'm just bleeding my back brake after fitting a braided line and noticed there is a white foam disk in the reservoir as well as the normal nissin rubber.

    I've not done a CBR before but is this meant to be there??
    Looks to me like its fell out of a bottle lid from some brake fluid!

    I may be wrong tho!

    It's the part in this pic on the right

    No it is a float and is suppose to be there. You can remove it if you want to.
