    You're probably looking at around 1.5 hours labour to install that and lower the front forks so it doesn't ride like crap. Don't forget to buy a shorter kickstand or budget for modifying the stock one, it won't work properly with the new ride height.

    Can I simply top up my brake fluid? so many opinions online but trust you guys

    Brake system is a closed system and unless you have a leak in it, there is no reason to ever need to top it up. The reservoir capacity is designed to be full with new pads and low with pads that need to be replaced. DOT 3,4 & 5.1 are compatible, DOT 5 is not.
