Stuff I want to change - remove reservoirs, change mirrors
By: Ian_H Date: May 26, 2021, 8:41 am

Hi .. so despite not even having picked my bike up yet - I'm
already thinking of a couple of changes.
[1] Get rid of the brake & clutch remote reservoirs
[2] Get some better looking mirrors
I've read the Gen2 bike has the integral reservoirs.
I've had a quick look around and can't spot any - is this a
recommended source for OEM or compatible brake/clutch lever
replacements?
For mirrors, I'm used to having bar-ends .. any recommendations
much appreciated.
Rizoma? Do I need adapters?
Thanks.

You'll have real problems trying to find the integral
reservoirs, I've only seen them as OEM. As for bar end mirrors I
have Rizoma and they not only look cool they also don't vibrate
:). Don't think you have to change the bar ends, but someone on
here will tell you. I have Motogadget bar end indicators which
again look really cool IMO.
Like I said in your last post, it's where to stop.

Thanks for replying.
I've got Rizoma bar-end mirrors on the my other bike so will
look to get these most likely.

MT-10 has the same brakes. The master cylinders for those are a
bit more common (and a hell of a lot cheaper). For the clutch I
would suggest a Thunderace unit. Quite compact.
I was going to change mine as I have a pair of XJR1300 MC's
kicking about, but they're a bit 90's looking though. ::)

Standard bars have a threaded inset for bar end
attachment..Rizoma OEM upgrade bars do not.
Handlebar mirror mounts are a left and right hand thread
affair (M10 x 1.25)
