Should be lots on here, do a search.

I mounted mine on the SS via the yoke, but that was after removing the igintion :D

Somebody posted up some photos of their radials not so long ago (like last week) as I remember looking at the brackets for the reserviors myself.

I think they put a slip of metal into the clamp of the radial (where the two halves bolt onto the bar) and then it was bent out into the right shape to attach a small 15ml reservoir. No point in having a huge reservoir, as long as you keep an eye on your fluid.

Have a browse through the pics section, or in this section, to see if you can find it.

I used a longer bolt on one of the bar mounts with a spacer sleeve under it. Photo possibly attached.

did you make the brakets or are they off the shelf? If I keep sps then I have a brembo to fit over the winter and will probably be looking for a clutch one too
thanks

I found on my SPS that I had to have longer bars because they fouled the clocks which is an mot failure.

bought - off the shelf - they are Motrax mirror bar-end mirror mounts that fit on the ends of the handlebars (I have long bars) I only used the bracket and the tapered internal bar mount - I then butchered the actual mirror mount - added a carbon rod - a titanium bolt etc and hey presto!

Just ordered some after market brembo master cylinders myself. Can you use the original brackets with the new cylinders ?
