DescriptionThe whole story▼

The RJ27 of 2017 to 2020 was the last road-registered R6 in Europe; after that, Yamaha sold it only as a track bike. Many are now kept as future classics, and details like the rear brake reservoir cap matter. Gilles' BRC-05 is a machined replacement.

Key Features

  • Cover for the rear brake fluid reservoir
  • Replaces the original reservoir cover quickly
  • One coloured ring each in silver, gold, red and blue
  • The ring colour is your choice, as a visual accent
  • CNC-milled aluminium
  • No registration required, according to Gilles

Type RJ27

Listed for 2017 to 2020. For the front reservoir Gilles offers the BRC-14.

Road Approval

No registration required, says Gilles: the cover goes on the Yamaha R6 without an inspection and without a change to the vehicle documents.

Scope of Delivery

One Gilles BRC-05 rear reservoir cover in black with 4 coloured rings (silver, gold, red, blue). You fit the ring you like; the others stay in the box for a later change of colour, and the original cover can be kept.

Fitting

Clean the reservoir and its surroundings before you start, because the brake fluid has to stay free of dirt and water. Replace the cover quickly, with the reservoir level, and tighten it evenly. Afterwards check the fluid level and operate the brake several times to confirm a firm feel before the first ride.
