DescriptionThe whole story▼

On an R1 there is rarely a convenient place to hang a reservoir. LighTech's OBT008 carries the reservoir at 60.6 mm height and 90.3 mm out from the mount. Black is the only finish this bracket exists in. On a 998 cc machine like the R1 it is the cheapest cockpit change available.

Key Features

  • Supplied individually for the R1
  • Black anodised — LighTech makes this bracket in no other finish
  • A stock LighTech item rather than a special order
  • Nothing on the R1 is drilled, cut or permanently altered
  • Reversible — the original part goes back on the R1 any time
  • 10 g of bracket on the R1

Choosing Front or Rear

Position decides whether the hose runs clean or kinks on an R1. The OBT008 sets the reservoir at 60.6 mm height with 90.3 mm of projection. It fits the LighTech reservoirs OBT001, OBT006 and OBT007 and is sold without any of them.

Maintenance

Anodised aluminium takes brake cleaner badly; keep it off the OBT008. Beyond that the OBT008 asks nothing of you.

Compatibility

Fitment is the R1 across 2020 to 2026. Mounting is simple, but where it ends up on the R1 is your decision, not a fixed point.

Order This With It

The OBT008 is a bracket and nothing else. It carries the OBT reservoir family (001, 006 and 007), which are ordered separately. A complete installation on the R1 is one tank plus one bracket.

Mounting It

Fitting the OBT008 to an R1 is a hand-tool job. Offer the bracket up before tightening — the hose run on the R1 decides the angle. No permanent alteration to the R1 is involved.

What Is in the Box

The OBT008 is supplied as a single bracket with its fasteners. Spares are listed under their own numbers rather than bundled.

Brake System and Road Approval

This part sits in the brake or clutch hydraulic circuit, which makes it more than a styling item. LighTech does not certify the OBT008 for road use, and neither do we. For a road-registered R1 in Germany, have the installation assessed before you rely on it — and have the system bled and checked by a workshop afterwards.
