    Just got the parts in and reassembled everything. I grabbed K&L kits for the calipers and master cylinder and generic hose/fittings from Z1 for the line. I wedged a piece of wood between the frame and the pedal overnight to check everything at it all looks good with no leaks.

    I even got it to fit with the original clamp on the swingarm that was for the hard line - I just bent back the tangs a bit. I have the white electrical tape on it right now just to keep an eye on the wear.

    I might redo the line. It seems a bit short to me right now but I'd love a second opinion on it.

      I’ve got a question that doesn’t have anything to do with the thread if you don’t mind. What’s with the weird extra clamp-on foot peg at a weird angle? I can’t figure out what or who it’s for.

        My best guess is the PO had a backrest for their passenger and that's like a comfortable/reclining footrest for them?

          I agree the line does look a little shorter than it should be for that routing.
