Hello all,
Wondering if anyone has relocated the brake master cylinder reservoir. I made a bracket and relocated it but am not happy with it. Wondering if anyone has done it and what does the bracket look like.
I've got an aftermarket one I can use just in case.
Thanks
Glenn

Here's where I relocated the brake master but I don't think Mike Everson is supplying this remote reservoir kit anymore. This reservoir is mounted to a 3/4" bar riveted to the frame. I really didn't want it attached to the windshield in case I wanted to remove the windshield . . . which later I did twice.

I should have explicitly stated or asked if anyone had relocated the original brake master cylinder reservoir. Sorry for the confusion.

I am planning to do this, but haven't gotten it done yet. If/when I do, I'll post up pics. If you beat me to it, please do likewise!

If I were to do my master cylinder again, I would make a 4" spacer and longer rod to move my the MC out from under the windshield cowl. This is mine now. 125949
