doesn't really matter what you put it in. but i always thought the old f4i res to be a little more classy looking than a cheezy plastic cup tho.

I just posted up some pictures of my 929 master with a custom reservoir and bracket.....(my 929 MC didn't come w/ the reservoir so i picked one up from a hong kong ebay seller for $5.)

You'll need a new MC to get the pee cup look

Scroll down towards the bottom for the pix

Bigger piston = more force with less effort on the lever. Very nice brake upgrade for minimal $$$ (braided lines are a must)

929/954 Master + Braided Lines + hong Kong shorty lever = 1 finger stoppies all day
Total cost was about $100 for everything on ebay.
