Title: Rizoma Reservoirs installed
Post by: Bbrent on August 13, 2008, 03:03:18 PM
I installed the Rizomas using the factor mirror mounts. 10mm bolt right and a nut as a spacer. What do you think?

I second the button heads no spacer (stainless)

I think you need to get some different bolts on there... Those biggun's you got detract from the look a bunch

Since 10mm bolts are a bit hard to find at the local hardware store, I've got a solution for you

if you look in the 2008 rizoma cataloge you will find a new billet ally bracket which makes the stainless strip look naf

Isn't that for just the side outflow tanks?  I'm looking for a solution too, since I already purchased the bottom flow reservoir.

Yes the bolt fits into the centre of the base of the reservoir. [bang]

They look great [thumbsup] Maybe even better if you bend the bracket in two places, to lift them higher? - and pointing forward a little bit? +1 on new bolts.

BTW - where do these things normally mount?

Looks good. The option I went with is a little different, I instaled mine with the same bracket but insted of screwing them from the mirror clamp, I instaled them onto the turn signals screw. This is how it looks.

That looks badass.  Really clean look.  I might have to copy some of that style this winter when I work on my next round of mods.
