Stupid noob question
Hello. I'm a newb to motorcycling and also motorcycle repairs. I'm an Engineer by trade so not a complete novice. I've just bought 2000 SV curvy as a winter project and am in the process of removing the fairing to change the front end. I have removed all the fairing mount brackets from the frame but there is one on the right hand side at the front which also supports a plastic bottle. The expansion pipe from the radiator goes into it aswell as an open tube from under the airbox. Is this bottle just to stop the radiator pumping scalding hot coolant onto your leg or does it serve another purpose. Basically I'm asking if I can ditch it or does it actually have a job?
