Lol. Yeah, it also is a cloth barrier for any moisture that might otherwise get into the reseviour.

I threw mine on there to make a statement. You don't need to spend 20 bucks for a Spoon or Mugen one. I found a Nike sweat band around the house and I'm sure it wasn't expensive.

Love my USDM Corona Extra high-performance sweatband (on my d16y8).

if u live where it's dusty, the sweatbands would deter the dust from clinging to the reservoir cover, hence to protect your fluid whenever u open up the reservoir.
sometimes, when u open up the reservoir cap for inspection, dust that is already clinging to the rim of the cap will get loose, and wallahhh...falls into the fluid.
$5-$20 for sweatband OR flushing your brake/clutch fluid frequently...

i use old socks, it covers everythimg...
