    No reason you can't use that HRC "reservoir" on the street. I doubt you'll be wearing thru rear brake pads fast enough on a ride to empty it and suck air. :)

    I have that on my Hawk. Works okay. Probably not street legal but I use it anyway. The only problem I had was the cap is airtight so eventually I would lose braking because of the vacuum. I drilled a very tiny hole in the cap for venting and it's been fine since.

    I'm using that setup, but I have replaced the tubing with 8mm (5/16") Tygon 2075/2375 tubing. That kit was designed more for VFR/RVF 400 and RS125/250, and you can increase the volume by using your own tubing. It is more of a pain to fill, bleed, and top up. Really, the only part you need is the end cap to make it tidy, you can piece the rest of it together much cheaper than that kit.
