Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

I am trying to do a disc front conversion and i need some help finding a part.

i was reading through the forums and came across a setup that allows for the "clean look" with the disc front end.

basically the front brake resivor can be hidden somewhere else instead of sticking out above the headlight panel with this kit. (I think its somethnig you need to take off a japan bike)

I seen pictures of this setup but i cant seem to find the thread with the picture.

i know one of the site moderators or senior members talked about it.

any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi there,

I believe that you are after is a remote reservoir master cylinder, I have one on my Suzuki.....
I have not seen it done myself but I for see 2 small problems.....

1# the reservoir needs to be higher than the master cylinder to bleed it properly, or you bleed the system holding the reservoir higher, then install it lower
2# I have only seen them on big Japan bikes running dual front 4 pot calipers, the displacement may be too much for a single or twin pot????, it could be very twitchy brakes.

Just some food for thought
