Brake Fluid Change Question
I put new front brake pads on my 2003 Sportster as well as installed front and rear Speed Bleeders. Now I Removed all of the old fluid in the front reservoir with a turkey baster and dried it out. My question is this: after completing the fluid change and bleed, how much fluid should i have in the reservoir when putting the cap back on? I do not want to over fill it and get the fluid all over everything. Any help would be appreciated!

"Add brake fluid to master cylinder reservoir until fluid level is about 1/8 in. (3.2 mm) from the top. Do not reuse brake fluid. Final tighten master cylinder reservoir cover screws to 6-8 inlbs (0.7-0.9 Nm)."
