rear brake hose 796

[jdp683]

Folks, looking for a wee bit of advice please?
I have fitted some rearsets from pompone on my 796. Look fantastic :thumbsup:
The rear brake line fits but is about 2-3 inches too short so it doesn't fit into the trunking under the swingarm as it should.
where's the best place to get a new rear brake hose? preferably coloured?
Any assistance appreciated.
Cheers John

They are nice.

I still can't make my mind up about the wet clutch cover.

I want one but I am not sure I want one!

What's it like when it's on?

Very pertty, loving the clutch cover :)

Clutch cover is great if a wee bit expensive! :eyepopping:
Wee bit misty until it's warm but then fine.
The cans are tasty too without the baffles :chuckle:

I never had an issue with the brake line itself when fitting rizomas rearsets to the Monster 1100s but I did have to raise the reservoir bottle and think you may also need to away from the exhaust and higher than the piston. I made mine from a piece of carbon sheet to neatly look the same but longer and away towards the rear of bike approx 50mm long. I had to actually cut the hose to avoid a kink by around 20mm.

Thanks Albie, yeah I will have to do the same as you but the brake line is too short as well!!!

[Albie]

You can see why though as they are designed with the cylinder much higher and forward than Rizoma. Theres really no other real good route except a longer line. Annoyingly that means a brakes bleed too.

Measure the length you need and the angle of banjo fittings you require and Hel Performance can make them to order, lots of options and a well made product.
