Front brake cable when using lower handlebars
ok so doing away with the stock 99 wideglide handle bars, using 6" risers and straight drag bars. So my front brake cable has mostly hard lines straight down and the uses small amount of hose
The stock break line is way too long, so what type break line do I need to get? All in all its dropping about 8 to 8 1/2 inches

I have some but haven't used them yet. YouTube makes it look like a 5 minute modification
The nice thing about the Magnum is the caliper end is a swivel joint so you don't have to twist the cable to get both banjo bolts lined up

I used these Goodridge hoses from JP Cycles when I put dual-disk on my SB, the fittings make it simple and all you have to do is measure the lengths you need and what connectors and bam zip-zang you're in business!
I used the black parts but I imagine they have non-black if you want.
