Topic: SS front brake line length/thread size

[flateric]

Hi,

I am restoring a 1977 Cb550k. I have rebuilt the front caliper and removed the stock brake line to replace it with a Stainless steel one. I have removed the auxiliary brake thing in order to go from brake master cylinder straight to brake caliper (also new brake master cylinder with brake switch integrated).

I need a custom brake line made and was wondering what length is recommended as well as the thread size at stock caliper is? My handle bars are almost like stock (European style - between stock and straight bars).

Thank you

I know the length of mine with Euro bars tho it does have a brake switch in there. Top is 11" bottom is 21". Hope this helps.

Talk to Shaun - Slingshot cycles. He makes brake hoses for CBs.

The thread should be M10x1.25
