SR400/500 / & XS650: For early model bikes with LHS caliper, this brake line is a similar length compared to the standard length SR400/500 line (used on the early model with high / wide factory bars). Also use on SR400/500 fitted with bars such as the POSH Super Up Bars, CB750K0 bars etc. For repair or upgrade or use with custom builds requiring this length line.
*Suits the factory (Early) SR master cylinder and caliper (as it is the D type), but if you have changed master cylinders consider if the D type or A type suits best after looking at the brake line bolt on position. (always measure length to ensure suitability with your chosen bars).
W650 USE: This line is -50mm (short) when compared to the (EARLY) model (or Japan import) with factory HIGH bars. Use this line on the W650 high bar model as an upgrade or replacement when changing bars to a different spec.
When used on the later model (aka Low Bar) or imports with low bars, this line is +100mm long compared to the factory low bar brake line. Use when fitting Tracker, Scrambler & Custom type bars that are higher and wider than the factory low bars but not as wide as the factory up bar. Line is often used on the W800 and W400 when fitting higher and wider bars. Always check length to ensure suitability.
OTHER INFO:
