DescriptionThe whole story▼

The SE is the better-equipped Z500, and Gilles gives it a line of its own from 2026. Owners who pay extra for equipment usually care about finish as well, so a machined cap on the rear brake reservoir fits the idea. Gilles' BRC-05 replaces the plastic original and comes with four coloured rings.

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

From 2026

This cover is listed for the Z500 SE from the 2026 model year; the standard Z500 of 2024 and 2025 has a page of its own. Keep the original cap, in case the bike is sold one day.

Road Approval

Gilles marks the cover as free of registration on the Kawasaki Z500 SE. Fit it as described in the instructions; nothing has to be entered anywhere.

Scope of Delivery

The rear brake reservoir cover BRC-05 and one ring each in silver, gold, red and blue. Only one ring is fitted at a time, so the remaining ones are spares for a different look later on.

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.
