Re: Oil bottle
Are you talking about the clutch master cyl? The storm has a hydraulic clutch actuation, perhaps all your other bikes were cable clutch

Re: Oil bottle
It also looks like it is well past time to change the fluid out as it looks black in the pic. 

Loud pipes don't save lives, knowing how to ride your bike will save your life.
Re: Oil bottle
Have a look in the workshop section and the Honda workshop manual is linked there. The Haynes manual has some areas where the wording can mislead in crucial areas, particularly around cct replacement.

Re: Oil bottle
And it's not oil but fluid that is in the clutch reservoir.
Here's a workshop manual.

Re: Oil bottle
HEHE just don't put engine oil in it. It uses the same fluid as the brake reservoir & will get darker overtime as the colour from the o'ring seals leach into it. BTW if it is that dark then it could do with a change.
Re: Oil bottle
Thanks, I'm planning on changing all fluids and filters in next couple of weeks so ill be sure to get a look at the knowledge section.
