I am looking at fitting some 1 1/4 T Bars to my speedy and was just wondering whether anybody has had any issues with grinding the brake reservior for a snug fit. I am assuming there is sufficient material around it? Any advise would be most appreciated

I did not have to grind anything to fit my 1.25 bars.

Mine didnt. I had to make a small grind at the bottom for it to fit. Quite a bit of alloy there. No probs on mine.

Mine don't fit properly either, grinding is still on my to do list... Maby it's cause we use metric pipe here (down under) and imperial in the states, I don't have an accurate measurer except my trusty tape but it looks to be bang on 1 1/4...
