Thanks for the replies,

Being new to Ducati's i queried the brake fluid reservoir hitting the fairing and was told this was normal? is there a fix for this?

Many thanks

Doesn't hit mine.....Are you sure you have the correct screen on? Is it an aftermarket jobbie? I have an aftermarket Fabbri screen (as in my avatar) and it misses just fine.

Maybe the clutch reservoir? but it's hitting the underside of the fairing/cowl not the screen.

They are only sat on rubber bungs.
Try and rotate them a bit on the bracket as they get twisted sometimes if you catch them with your gloves etc.


By the way, welcome aboard.

Hi Simon,

I have a 748s mono in grey the best colour:D, did you get it from riders of Bristol?

Mine front brake reservoir is close to the screen but not touching;)
