Braided/stock?

Braideds:
Stock setup (single unit on pointy, 3 hose on curvy) not compatible
2 hose (race setup) compatible
Over the mudguard setup, compatible.

Braided but what does it matter the thread in the master cylinder and callipers is all that needs to be the same.

the reason i ask is theres is a length of braded hose for sale from a pointy sv and i need a length for my curvey so really my question is, are the banjo bolts the same in the master cylinder and and callipers in all models ?

Yes, they are the same. Obviously if you are using a two line setup then you need a longer banjo bolt in the master cylinder, but the threads are the same either way.

Cos the single unit jobby on the pointy has a splitter block over one of the calipers and there's nothing to bolt it to on a curvy.

Threads are same.
