Default 2013 FLHTC amputee questions

Hello,
So I ride a 2013 FLHTC, I was in a motorcycle accident in 2016 lost the lower half of my right leg, I am wonder if anyone knows the length from the rear caliper to the left hand grip, or what length/type of hydraulic break line I would need.

Thanks in advance,
Skyler

Can't help you with specifics, but have you heard of NABD?

http://www.nabd.org.uk/

They do a great job helping people with disabilities get (back) on the road with adapted bikes. They offer 'a wide range of 'Off the Peg' kits (which can be tweaked according to needs) which may well save you a lot of time and frustration.It says on their site that they have helped in set up a disabled rider support group in the US, so google or contact them for details. Good luck mate.
