So it's one res for both the brake and clutch? I think a horizontal cylindrical res would be cool too.

Important: always check your battery filter and regularly change your headlight fluid.

hmmmm looks like fluid tank is too low, lower than cylinders. It is not OK. Owner should expect issues. IMHO ???
I am not pro in tech questions, but as any rider have some experience that I can share without claiming to absolute truth. Please use my advices responsibly.

What does height matter? Isnt it a vacuum? If theres no air, and the fluid is pressure driven, wouldnt gravity be a non issue?

it's not an issue provided it is high enough to overcome the column of fluid in the line.  the volume of the reservoir is small

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Norm did this one of his 'bikes' years ago.  He used the small clutch or rear brake reservoir and supplied them to all 3 hydraulic circuits.  I remember it b/c it was unusual.

Also, if the clutch fluid goes black...  Do you really want that in your front brakes?!?!?!?!?
