Looks like a nice thing.
I don't think I've ever seen a rear brake MC like that one with an integrated res.

Some Honda CRFs have an integrated MC, I've fitted one to the TDR.

Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
I really don't like the look of remote reservoirs on MCs, Possibly because they just look like an afterthought. I see the reasons for them, I just don't like them.

That looks cool, but once again, the fairing will do fuck all .KungFooBob wrote: ↑Sun May 09, 2021 9:12 am https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/294166314596

LOL, I forgot to add a line to the original post saying Yozza will be along in a moment to comment on the usefulness of the fairing!

I wouldn't buy a quick road bike without one. Form before function is just stupid.KungFooBob wrote: ↑Sun May 09, 2021 10:40 am LOL, I forgot to add a line to the original post saying Yozza will be along in a moment to comment on the usefulness of the fairing!

Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
Is the MC intentionally a smiley face, or is that a coincidence?

Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
Can't see KFBs picture, but I assume it's the low mileage FZ in Ipswich, no one I know locally knows who's it is, and no one has seen it, lowers are after market.
I've spent the day with a 1994 NSR250 used by Dajiro Kato, sadly the owner wasn't willing to let me have a go on it - I did ask.
