Yes - RAM sells them directly.

How about this? You won't have to drill into the top of the reservoir.

Sadly, the *best* covers are unobtanium.
"Motorcycle Larry" machined a single and dual offset mount for a RAM ball.

I can't speak specifically to the 18+ years, but the https://www.rammount.com/part/RAM-B-346U is a universal fit, not a custom fit

I would not use the covers for the mounting of anything. I wouldn't want anything to cause leaks. I have double ball mount but you can get single mount that uses same screws for brake or clutch reservoir handlebar clamp rather than the lids.
Interested buyer said he wants them but hasn't paid yet.

thought it looked familiar... doubt anyone made ram mounts for em.. just not enough sales... and I don't think they got the cult following that say the ST's did..
won't stop me from looking though..

Sitting it on top of 18 clutch, looks like plenty of adjustment to fit.
I have one on my FJR that I test fit on the front brake reservoir of the 18 DCT, and it fits. A little hangs off the edge, so I’m going to see if I can shape it a little when I get the new one.

Please guys, do not use the reservoir cover screws to mount anything. They are very small. They have little thread engagement. They are perfectly fine for holding down a two ounce aluminum cover that sees no force opposing gravity. They are not fine for holding a GPS, a phone or practically anything of any mass especially with any offset or torque. No need to risk damaging this most important safety feature by stripping the threads or even just allowing a wee bit of water intrusion.

Yes and I bought two of them. But don't use the as I originally bought them for. I now us one mounted to my ram mount arm attached to the handlebar as normally done and use it to mount my TPMS to.
The intended use is to bolt the flat part to the top of the clutch or brake reservoirs with ball upwards then a ram mount arm attaches to it and the device. The parts come with lots of screws of different sizes and even small spacers for the screws to keep the base of the mount off the reservoir caps.

That is why I no longer use the ones I have as intended. The screws are really small in diameter and with any force can easily pull the inserted nut out of the housing. I don't know what you call those nuts but they can pull out with either a strong hit or force from the sides or if you over tighten them they will pull out. They use to use these type of screws/nuts on the original Valkrie Fairings and guys were coming into the shop all the time wanting replacements.

I mounted this on the cluthc side and my action cam is sitting on it.
No need to drill reservoir cover.
In fact did not worry about leaks because only replaced the screws with longer ones and even not opened the original cover. Dont think that will cause a problem.
