Curvey 'S' brake hoses fit 'N'?
 
Will braided front lines from a faired curvey fit a naked curvey or would they be too tight?

Cheers

Generally speaking no, they would be too short.
But it depends on who made them - many aftermarket hoses are none too accurately sized.

Have a pair of Goodridge hoses - replaced them with Hel when I raised my bars.

don't know what brand the braided lines on my S are but there's loads of slack, they'd be fine on an N

I think it depends on who made them. My Goodridges have about 10mm of slack on them

Ive just got some second hand ones that were on a curvey s. If they dont fit when they arive ill sell them on.

Im going to need a double banjo bolt for my naked,s master cylinder as the lines are the two straight to caliper type.

Just had a look at my master cylinder and it has 3/8 on it. I take it this is the banjo bolt size i need??

No it is metric

What does the 3/8 refer to then?

Might be a 3.8 grade bolt.

Anyway, definitely metric, M10, can't remember what pitch offhand, 1.0mm or 1.25 maybe
