    Front brake reservoir

    I was removing my mirrors yesterday and wrench slipped and hit the d**n plastic reservoir and shattered it. book says nothing about replacing just reservoir but it looks like a bolt on is it?

    I just got one from flatout. I haven't installed it yet, but it's here on my desk and looks like three screws in the bottom to hold it on.

      It should have two screws in the bottom of the reservoir, should be an O ring too..

                I can't link directly to the page at Flatout. The part number for my reservoir is 59687-45050. Yours should be the later square type, which is intergral to the master cylinder. They list for over a $100.
