yamaha yzf 750/1000 has come home

[yzfpaul]

is all cool
the bracket is multi adjustable independant up down left right with either bolt
so have just ran out to the garage and moved the left side down a touch
job done
i can sleep tonight

[yzfpaul]

as it happens i'm after some ideas about my brake /clutch fluid bottles

because i've had to drop the bars 60mm the fluid bottles sit way below the yolk

should i just make up brackets to sit them where they are or should i get some longer hose and move them up to where they should be ?

any other suggestions welcome

early R models have built in reservoirs. Just a thought.

[yzfpaul]

i thought of that too joe but i have an r1 master cylinder so i need to keep them - although i did think about my 999 brembo ones they also have a built in reservoir

[joeboy]

Ive seen customs with little tiny containers sat right on top of the master with no pipe or bracket too..cant think where though.

[yzfpaul]

oooh oooh ( runs to garage with camera )

[joeboy]

Now I think about it it was just a piece of clear tubing about 2 inches long with a bung in the top..must have been a pinhole in the bung.

Seemed to work ok and you can see the level easy and top up if needed.

i've seen your work nasy and its nothing short of sublime
thats why i've sent it to birmingham rather than a local sprayer

it has a slight tickover rattle but am not sure what it could be
it doesnt sound like its anything major

When you think about it its only ever going to go down with pad wear or unless something is wrong. Looked smart aswell.
