I've always thought about that. Why not put them in the handlebars? Like Buell and the gas and oil in the frame and swingarm etc.

because gravity only works in one direction, down, and nobody makes a top shelf set of lever with built in reservoirs.

the 749/999 had really nice looking reservoirs, they could have done something like that.


i have been watching ebay for a deal on a used set

That is 1 nice bike. I read its going to be about £12000 Sterling. A bit pricy for my bank account.

That is one of the sweetest bikes I've ever seen. Probably not practical, but amazing looks.
