Re: roughly how long do brake lines have to be to run db bars

just take some dental floss and measure with that..usually harley style shops have various lengths and you can even change your angle of the connections....remember that one is shorter than the other if your going to run stock illustration, if you plan to run the calipers seperate their might be a slight difference in length to allow for bending etc..hope this helps

Re: roughly how long do brake lines have to be to run db bars

dont need longer front lines or clutch cable on an f4i with CR mid pro taper contours, just reroute them so they work,just put the bars on and see if you can make em work,not sure bout your 08 zx6,but more than likely it'll be fine,and as for the hb line I'm not positive but I think I remember gettin a 70" line.I think the standard for runnin DB bars is a line thats 4" longer than stock.This is all from memory so I'm not positive.
