No, do it with the bars turned and the cylinder horizontal (rotating the cylinder if need be). the cylinders are made by Nissin for all sorts of bikes and it's my understanding that the intent is that they should be filled on the horizontal. Doing it with the bars striaght ahead will almost always defeat my solution above as the fluid ends up closer to the lip and so is more likely to get onto the sealing area as you reassemble.
