I searched the forum and couldn't find anything... Has anybody done this? My rear brake reservoir is mounted by ziptie to a bolt where the rear pass. pegs used to go...

My only concern is that there may be heat from the rear cylinder (or exhaust) that would cause damage to the tube?

Something like this:

Order a cheap remote reseviour and make your own bracket out of aluminum.
That’s what I did.
If you want I’ll make you one but it’ll cost you $50

The bracket is held in by the same fasteners that hold the master cylinder to the frame. Bracket is actually sandwiched between the two.

I’m joking about the $50
But if you’re interested in making one I can send you more pics.
PM me if you’re wanting more pics.

Looks better than a whacky tube.
IMHO

Cool, I'll let you know. PN for the reservoir you used?


This looks awesome. Too bad I don't have heel guards on my bike, but I still think it's sleek. Have any more pics?
 
It’s a rizzoma or possibly a knock off that I found on amazon for $20. It’s CNC’ed aluminum and has the rizzoma logo on it.
But who knows, either way it works for me.

No heel guards?
Please post a pic, I’m curious to see what that looks like.

Previous owner removed heel guards, installed adjustable Rizoma rear sets. I'm also not sure of what MC is being used (w/ the spring).

Actually, here is a close up of the setup

That is the stock master, the spring comes with the Rizoma rearsets and is added on to the master.
 
I am going to do the rear master that sext9 posted it will compliment the rearsets better than the stock setup.
