Just had a quick look at mine that arrived in the post on Saturday and am a little bit puzzled. (I got the 2F 1R set for a K3)

The rear ones bolts are both facing the same way but looking at the bike it looks like one should be at 90 degrees to the other to allow it to fit?

I'm thinking that both the fronts attach to the master cylinder using the double banjo bolt and use the washers as spacers. That right?

Phoned HEL as I was worried about the banjo's facingthe wrong way. Everything else seems fine.

Was told that by holding the collars tightly and putting something through the banjos that I can rotate them to the deseried degree :D

You can turn the ends round, but i would see if you can fit it without doing it! As for your other question. Yes a double banjo though both both ends at the Mstr cyl. Copper washer in between the ends as well as either side

Did you end up doing this ?

I just fitted my HEL rear line and had the same problem.
Now it looks a little weird because the line curls up :?

I'd show a pic, but my camera is unavailable right now.

Never mind.

I just did it and it worked.

Although it seems the line is a little longer than the original, so I had to route it a little differently, i.e. turning the banjo at the master cylinder so it points upwards.

it seems to work so far...
