r6 radial master cylinder swap - quick question

[Gitter]

Hi all,

just picked up a relatively low milage gen 2 fz1 recently. Looking to do a R6 radial master cylinder swap, was gonna do brake lines at the same time. Will stainless lines for a gen 2 FZ1 work? Or do I need something different?

Thanks

I'd get them 50mm longer, that way if you do the the R1 fork & Caliper swap as well you know they'll fit. You will need longer lines as the banjo bolt on the R6 lever is further out on the bar than the stock R1 banjo bolt. I went 50mm longer when I did the full conversion and that worked for me.

hmm, so it sounds like I'll have to get custom lines?

I got Hell lines 50mm longer, no dramas and no extra cost, I just had to wait a week to get them.
