Guys
My 2c here.
Firstly suzuka1980 asked me to post up to confirm his legitimacy and I have no probs doing so.
I bought a billet anodised rear brake reservoir off him in December last year.
Here is the link:

At the time I thought nothing of it, I emailed the dude and we did the paypal thing.
He mentioned that I probably wouldn't get it for a few weeks due to Christmas mail traffic which was ok by me.
I then received a PM from a member who said that his stated address might not be his "real" address. ie. stated Brissy but real=Singapore.
At that stage I thought "oh-oh" but since it was paypal then there "might" be some protection.
In any case, I actually forgot all about the purchase, as i usually do when I don't get them within 2 weeks.
So it was early January when I received a well wrapped package from Singapore with a well crafted gold rear brake reservoir. Exactly as pictured in the thread.
The construction/machining is quite nice (more on this later) but I didn't fit it to my bike as I have now gone for an all black stealth look on my gixxer.
So, being the dodgy bugger that I am, I gave it is a b'day pressie to one of my mates (with a gold K8 gixxer though).
This dude was wrapped with it and he was very pleased with the construction/milling of the unit. This guy is a contract machinist/fabricator for Herods and Ford so know a littler bit about this stuff. I just thought it looked sexy.
So, yeah, I bought off suzuka1980.
His emails/communication were good and immediate.
He delivered (to me) what was promised.
The product was (to me) of very good quality.
Would I buy off him again?
Yes. Especially if he made BLACK MINI rear brake reservoirs!!!
And thats all I have to say.
I hope this helps some of you guys out.
