DescriptionThe whole story▼

A naked XJ6 has nowhere to hide an original fluid reservoir. LighTech's OBT001 holds 31 cm³: machined aluminium outside, clear plastic inside so the level stays readable. LighTech anodises the OBT001 in 2 different colours. It changes the part of the XJ6 the rider looks at most.

Key Features

  • Billet aluminium outer shell, machined from solid
  • 2 colours, all at the same price
  • Finish changes the look of the XJ6, not the fit
  • Supplied with a rubber gasket that seals the cap against leaks
  • It is the cheapest visible change on an XJ6
  • Made in Italy

Looks and Maintenance at Once

A fluid reservoir does two things, and the factory part does only one of them. LighTech machines the OBT001 shell from billet and lines it with translucent plastic, so 31 cm³ of fluid is readable without tools. On the XJ6 the reservoir replaces the original box and nothing else has to move.

Maintenance

Fluid darkens as it absorbs water — on the XJ6 that is now visible without tools. Beyond that the OBT001 asks nothing of you.

What It Fits

This listing covers the Yamaha XJ6, 2008 to 2016. Treat the XJ6 fitment as an application note rather than a guarantee of a drop-in position.

What You Also Need

The OBT001 is supplied without a bracket. LighTech offers a front bracket (OBT008) and a rear one (OBT009), plus the OBT003 support, and all three are black only. Ask us before ordering and we will match the bracket to your XJ6.

In the Workshop

Fitting the OBT001 to an XJ6 is a hand-tool job. Use fresh fluid of the grade the XJ6 specifies, not what is left in the bottle. Re-check the fasteners after the first ride.

What You Get

One reservoir per box, with its sealing gasket. LighTech keeps it as a stock item.

Road Use and Approval

Anything in the hydraulic circuit of an XJ6 is safety-relevant by definition. LighTech does not certify the OBT001 for road use, and neither do we. Have a workshop bleed and pressure-test the XJ6 circuit once the part is on, whatever your inspector says.
