DescriptionThe whole story▼
Machined from Ergal aluminium and finished with a laser-engraved LighTech logo, this rear brake fluid reservoir cap brings Italian racing heritage directly to the Yamaha YZF-R1 and R1M — a detail-driven upgrade that signals intent before the throttle is even touched.
Key Features
- CNC-machined from Ergal aluminium for a robust, lightweight construction that outlasts OEM plastic caps
- Hard anodised surface provides scratch resistance and long-term corrosion protection in all conditions
- Laser-engraved LighTech logo delivers an authentic racing aesthetic without afterthought badges or stickers
- Direct plug-and-play fitment replaces the original brake fluid reservoir cap without modification
- Available in black, red, gold and green anodised finishes to complement any livery or colour scheme
Design, Finish and Heritage
LighTech has built its reputation supplying the WorldSBK and MotoGP paddocks with precision-machined accessories that fuse form and function in equal measure. The FBC23 rear reservoir cap is a product of that philosophy: every surface is CNC-machined to tight tolerances before receiving a hard anodised finish that holds its colour under track heat and daily road use alike. The laser-engraved logo is cut into the cap itself rather than applied — meaning it will never peel, fade or look anything less than factory-fresh. Choose from four distinct anodised colours to match your R1 or R1M's bodywork, from understated black to race-paddock gold.
Fitment and Installation
Installation is entirely straightforward. The FBC23 is a one-to-one replacement for the standard Yamaha rear brake reservoir cap — unscrew the original, thread in the LighTech, done. No drilling, no adapters and no specialist tools required. The cap is equally at home on a road-registered R1 used for weekend trackdays as it is on a dedicated circuit machine.
