Braided hoses for clipons over Yoke.

Hi.

Looking to raise the bars on my 1999 Non ABS R1100S.

Was looking to order from Venhill but was wondering how much longer than standard to make the hoses. I was thinking of specifying +40mm.

Does this seem sensible?

Cheers
Gary

Not sure what setup you're after but for my over the mudguard setup I got the line from the master cylinder to the caliper made at 75cm. That gives it enough slack not to pull it tight.

I was going for a 2 line from m/c to calipers.

I was thinking 40mm will be ample for the small increase in bar height?

I went for the Venhill twin line +50mm and its OK. +40 may be a little snug.
One thing to consider. Venhills kit comes with 45 degree caliper banjos. I needed the 90s for mine. It depends which caliper you have.
A call sorted this out

Mine has the original brembos so I think thats 45 Degree fittings for me.

+50mm it is then.

Thanks muchly.
