Default New Reservoirs Installed *PICS For You Hookers*

So after reading up on how drain the brake fluid, problems with air bubbles, me being a borderline retard, and to top it off - not knowing jack sheeet about what the hell I was about to do, I took my bike over to Trackoholics late this afternoon to have these new reservoirs installed. Sean was busy but put what he was doing aside for me, which was WAY cool since I wasn't in his schedule, and installed these things in no time flat! (anybody in San Diego needs to check these guys out!!! totally honest, great prices and just all around good peoples) Here are the pics of the new reservoirs:

These things are SICK!!! You don't even notice them unless you're looking - they just blend perfectly with the bike. THis is what honda should have done right off the bat. (Thank you PJ's Parts for hooking these things up, correcting me on ordering the wrong reservoir for my bike, returning my call promptly and shipping these things faster than anyone on the planet)

Papi

P.S. I pulled up next to a 636 Ninja at a stoplight after getting these installed and the rider wouldn't even look over at me when I said what's up. I know it was these reservoirs he was jealous of!!!! He see me rollin', he hatin'.

Thread hijack...how hard was it to install the LED's in your hugger. What do you plug them into, how do you do the wiring? Thanks

heybuddy, you have good taste, imo. please don't move to san diego and have a bike that looks just like mine though, ok? i have more things to do to the bike, but everything i am going to do is just going to be very subtle - like it's always been there. nothing will stick out and have people say DAMN.

martin, the front reservoir has the side window, the rear does not. you can see the window in a few pics if you look for it. the rear would require taking the cap off (rizoma doesn't make one for this bike with a window that i am aware of).

camaro, the leds in the hugger were installed by tripageled.com and i paid $50, which included a new hugger. if you send them your hugger it's $25. as far as the wiring goes, i can't answer that question because i had them installed by someone that knows more than me (ie. i don't know how to wire things and am not very handy).
