Hey Jim, what did you do to change the front brake reservoir? Did you 
just drill into the assembly so you could mount the bracket from a '99? 
I've considered doing the same, along with replacing the rubber hose 
that runs from the reservoir to the master cylinder with a braided 
stainless steel one (a la Martin Fay). I'm not sure it'll make a whole 
lot of difference, though; cleaning the pistons every 2-3 months seems 
to be the ticket to keeping the brake lever travel to a minimum.
