Rear brake hose
Is there a difference in the rear brake hoses between the naked and faired sv.I need to change the rear and have found a place that does braided rear hoses cheap but it says not for the S model?-is it the length thats different-i need a shorter hoses anyway due to the new exhaust pipework ,or is there something else different?

Re: Rear brake hose
the swing arms are slightly longer, but not enough to make a differance to the lines, i think

Re: Rear brake hose
I'm with Hovis here. I thought the swingarms were marginally different in length.

Re: Rear brake hose
Only on the 1000cc bikes, where the 'N' is 5/8" longer.
The difference in wheelbase quoted for the faired and naked 650 models is due to the different gearing as standard, not suspension differences.

Re: Rear brake hose
How would gearing change the wheelbase?
(though the different height of the forks in the yokes I could understand..)
