You can top it up no problem just fill it between the upper and lower lines
,The brakes are no less effective when low but it is advisable to keep the fluid between the two lines , gradually when your front pads wear the fluid will go down a very little amount over time ,
You can fill it easily yourself you DONT need to bleed your system. Just undo the two screws on the top of the reservoir (im guessing by your name you have the naked model), remover the diaphragm plate and diaphragm (usually comes off all in one piece) Top up using new fluid to the ridge alond the inside of the front wall of the reservoir. (dont overfill) seat the rubber diaphragm back in place and install the plate and cover and put the two screw back in.
dont get brake fluid on your paint work else it will eat into it like paint stripper , place a cloth over paint work etc to protect it .
hope this helps .
