Ok this might sound a little dumb but I can find my coolant resivor tank on my bike(06 R1). I had a 02 and the tank was on the left front side but this one is not. I see a tank near the rear master cylinder is that it?? If so how do I top my fluid off?? Any help would be much apricated!! Thanks

Yes thats it, remove the Phillips head screw from the rear brake reservoir to gain access to the overflow Tank.

What a stupid design......I mean I understand there isnt much room but come on!!! That thing looks like a pain in the a$$ to get to. I figured that was it but I didnt have any coolant in it at all so I couldnt tell. Thanks Fellas!!
