I recently flushed my brake system on my 850T (96) and removed the reservoir to drain it. Its a piece of cake--just remove the torx screw and obviously the cap with the wires attached. It lifts straight up and out. On the bottom is a plunger rod, which, when you push it in, will drain the fluid out of the reservoir. (As you lift the reservoir up, the plunger will drop and seal the bottom port) I had no problem with seals, O rings etc. Entire process took 10 minutes.
