Brake line lengths

[yamagrl]

What are the clutch line length and the front and rear brake lines lengths?

 

I recently saw a post that said how long the brake lines are, but for the life of me I just cannot find that post again.

DOH!!!

And this last weekend I cleaned out the shed and threw out all the 28 year old rubber lines I took off the bike when I delinked and went to stainless. Today was trash day so they are gone.

 

It never fails, they were in my way for 2 years.................

Brake line measurments

Here is a list of lines I have from my 1st gen 83.

 

I would treat these numbers as reference only. I tried to get accurate measurements though.

 

 

Rear Master to rear caliper.

 

18 3/8" from C/L to C/L of banjo fittings.

 

One banjo fitting @ 15 deg.

 

Both banjo fittings rotated @ 90 deg. to each other

Rear Master to front steel line at rear master.

 

4 3/4" from face of 10mm fitting to C/L of banjo fitting.

 

Banjo fitting @ 15 deg.

Front metering valve to front caliper.

(This line is from a 1988 bike with the upper bleeder port)

.

 

8 5/16" from face of 10mm fitting at top bleeder to C/L of double banjo fitting. This segment would be eliminated for 83-85 models without upper bleeder port if desired.

 

33 3/4" from C/L of double banjo fitting to C/L of banjo fitting at brake caliper.

 

Banjo fitting at brake caliper @ 15 deg.
