Amazon shows some CB1100 covers too.
Here is another style of reservoir brake cap from AliExpress
Caution, it comes in pair, meaning that I have an extra 2 covers in my drawer.

Thanks to mtneers for his info Wink)

Using a "Switched Power Source" just insures you don't accidently drain your battery.
***
Here is pic of my 2014 CB1100 DX (USA EX model) headlight cone showing my "auxiliary power" connections that I hooked into the unused RED switched power connector. This RED switched power connector is used for the heated grips if you have them installed.
**
1. The RED switched power connector is at the top of the pick.
2. I bought the white plastic female connector to snap on to it, but you don't need this.
3. The brown and red wires coming out of the white plastic female connector go to my USB power on my handlebars.
4. I piggy backed my spot lights onto the RED switched power connector via the blue tap connector with the white wire coming out of it.
Thanks ..
But I have a heated grips ... installed
Then ... is not possible connect the usb charger too ???
I,ll must connect to under seat aux option ???

Sure you can Alfgaxatico, you can connect more than one device to the accessory connector. Just remember it is fused 10amps so don’t overload the circuit.
Okay ; installation finished with USB charger Quad Lock .. I have gone to the official Honda of my city; and they have installed an auxiliary connection (my model is cb1100 ex 2015 Europe); which is under the seat next to the battery (cable option 2 service manual). the cost of it; in addition to changing the DOT 4 hydraulic clutch fluid; It was € 43 ... I think it was worth it for them to do it.
Glad you installed the USB port and it works, and there is little reason to complain about this price. But for other readers let me propose a different solution, one without installation at all. Buy an "Olight" RN 800 (or similar) from ebay. When you mount this little thing to your handle bar (in under 2 minutes) it provides for
- an autonomous USB charger (large LiIon battery),
- a very powerful (spare) head light,
- a flasher to use in daylight (similar to what a Kisan modulator does, different modes).
And all this without splicing the motorcycle's harness, without any risk that connections made may later corrode.
And for those of us riding in Europe it comes with another advantage over the Kisan modulator, it is entirely legal.

The good's enemy is the better Wink
