Cool alternative solution for rear brake fluid reservoir on a 2in1 exhaust system

guys,

I've found a solution which replaces the OEM rear fluid reservoir so it won't stick out anymore.

This part is used on a Honda HRC bike. Have a look at the pics for more details.

Short description

The HRC rear brake reservoir replacement kit consists of a brake fluit resistant transparent tube, a plug and a hose clamp.

Drain the brake fluid; I use a special tool for that.
Remove the OEM reservoir/hose and replace it with the HRC.

Fill the system with new fluid et voila!

Greetings from Holland/Groeten uit Holland,

Marcel

moved the hose a bit. Attached it with the clamp that came with the HRC kit to the side cover.
No big deal but much better than using those ugly tyrips.

In fact, it's just a PVC hose. I can buy that anywhere. Can you tell me the approx diameter of the hose?

I just found out that the normal hose won't do, because of the chemicals etc, so I found the item on ebay, case closed
