Basically my DRZ is getting a make over although Im not sharing much until its in the stage where everything is bought and ready to fit. Unfortunatly though I've hit a bit of a road block and need some helpful suggestions from the brain trust that is you mighty organs.
Im looking to replace the brake and clutch lever perches because they have the threaded holes for mounting the standard mirrors. which look a bit crappy. I thought about buying some for a motocross but then wondered if there was another option, one which maybe had a discrete brake res? Have any of you any suggestions, just a make model and year of bike would be fantastic I'll google the pics unless you've one you can already post a link to.

I didnt mean discrete MC did I! I meant discrete Res sorry - Edited now.
See Im going to be mounting quite a bit on the bars (remember the switches I discussed with you) then there are some other bits which threaten conflict with the Res location either that or just look a pig. So I considered using a set of faired SV brackets because I know I can still get 3 finger levers for these. Then I worry the brake res is HUGE so I'd also need to get a tiny one of those - so thought about asking if there was a smaller variety all together. Biggest bonus is it doesnt really matter what pressure the MC is kicking out cos dirt bike brakes are poo poo anyway so I doubt its going to be much worse.

Just stick a tiny bit of tygon tubing on as reservoir, just don't let it run dry.
