3" FWD ext on Breakout
 
Need some help from those that have done this. Currently have the right side off. How did you access the banjo bolt for the rear caliper? That bad boy is hidden like hell. Did you guys remove the rear wheel??

The light is shining on the brake line (lower one) coming from the old line that I'm replacing with the new one.

Forgot to say it's on a 2014 BO with ABS

It's a pain in the butt. I took the back fender off and the exhaust. Pulled the plastic fender up. It was still hard to get to it. I did it on both my Breakouts. Instead of explaining it go to this thread. Read thru the whole thread.

That's what I've done. Got the banjo off. Getting it back on....that's a whole new ball game for those with big hands

I had my wheel off when I did it...doesn't take long to take it off and put it back...

I have big hands to and could barely get in there. Unless you take the wheel off the only thing I can tell you is you have to squeeze you hand in there with the brake line and the banjo bolt. It took me 4 or 5 times before I got the bolt started.

What a nightmare that was. Didn't have to take off the tire, but that hand was tight....

Sitting on the bike level. You can see the difference from right to left. A couple of inches.
