Brake line changes - SV650.org

Hi all, I have just purchased my first SV650 (a 2003 naked model) after an 8 year break from riding. I have already started doing a few mods but wanted to change the front brake lines to SS. I know this this probably a bit of a newb question but if I purchase a set of HEL 2 line race set, how do you connect this to the existing master cylinder which only has a single output as standard?

The kit will come with a double banjo bolt for the two lines

Also look at cobra lines by cpracetec on ebay they are the same as HEL but cheaper

Having calipers that work properly is a prerequisite any day of the week. Totally disagree about looping a hose across the mudguard, last time I heard this was banned in racing (in case it gets caught and pulled off) plus creates a high point you are unable to bleed. Simplest is always best, nothing wrong with the splitter on the yoke but it uses three hoses instead of two, and you pay by the hose.
