Can someone measure a curvy rear brake hose for me please? I ordered a set of stainless hoses for my pointy and the rear is way too long!

Cheap stainless hose going too...

I'll measure my spare one when I get home, unless someone else lets you know first

22 inches from the outside edges of the banjos, so yours is probably OK. It just looks lomger off the bike

Cool it is a curvy one then, afaik the nakeds are different to the s models. Is that one you have an s?

IIRC Only difference is the faired one runs slightly higher gearing that causes the wheelbase to be (very) slightly different. AFAIK the brake line is the same.

I was under the impression that the footpegs were at a different height. A guy on SVrider reckons they are different part numbers?

You're right they are, I'd forgotten that.
Still goodridge list the same part number for both faired and unfaired.

I can't imagine it being a big difference in the hose length. It was Galfer part number he was on about.
