Rear brake master cylinder reservoir idea
Does anyone have any ideas or any place they could point me to where I can find a rear brake master cylinder reservoir? I need a larger than stock one for the trike. Don't like the Wilwood that Champion supplied. I'm sure it will function fine but its damn ugly.
Ok, I guess no one wants to jump in here or has any ideas. Why do i need such a large reservoir? That's all it is, a reservoir. You're not using it for braking. You're using the fluid in the lines. See the pictures.
thanks Dan
Wow, crickets.........
You scccared everyone

Wow, guess you all scare pretty easy. No worries. i found my answer on one of the custom sites.
That looks like the same one that I have on my Kawi Trike except the hose connection is on the bottom. Works for me. The only thing that I have is I need to move it higher on the trike. It sits lower that the brake lines.

You do mean the one on the right correct? That's the Wilwood one that Champion supplies. I'm sure it's fine and works great but it's butt ugly. I was just looking for a more aesthetically pleasing one.

So it looks like Motortrike uses the stock one. So that's the way I'll be going until I find something nicer looking that holds at least the same amount of fluid.
If that is actually your only option...maybe a Witchdoctor reservoir cover and a little black paint on the urine specimen container might do the trick.
I don't know that its my only option but it's going to work. and once it's all set up I don't feel like redoing it with a different master. So that's what I will do. I have one on my other XCT and you cant tell that its a sleeve and a cover.
bazman. the guys in England fitted mine low down at front frame and fitted a metal holed ventilated guard on my hammer S trike if that helpsOriginally Posted by Dirtydan
