I'm the Night Train that did this swap with dr.dirty - we did not swap brake lines or shift link. I'm not 100% sure if he had to do anything to his brake line, but I'm pretty sure they bolted right up. The XB has a solid rear brake line; that's the only reason I'm not for sure. I didn't have to do anything, so I know they're the same m/c bolt size.

Shift link on both are identical (12") so long as you're not putting on extended forwards.

Look like Yamaha dirt bike pegs. Certainly very grippy in bad weather.

They're made by Joker Machine - and they're awesome in bad weather.
