5th gen vfr800 brake lines through the swingarm need help

I've had my swingarm polished and now have this ugly black chain guard with 2 black lines I have seen the great write up on the 6 gen with pic but the 5th gen swingarm is a bit different

 

You can replace the break line with braided stainless and order a aluminum chain guard and polish it. Problem solve

 

Thanks that's a good idea but I like the look of the full swingarm and red chain

 

You can run one premade braided line through the swingarm, or two if you use bolt up ends. There is a square hole on the left inside of the arm by the shock & a drain hole underneath just in front of the hub. This can be enlarged slightly to allow one crimped on type banjo through, or two pieces of braided hose if you intend to keep the CBS & use bolt on hose ends. Just be careful of the routing with the near the exhaust & make sure any flex points are spiral wrapped to stop the SS braid cutting in to the swingarm !

 

If I run those two lines braided do u know how long for each and what pieces I need and if I make those do I need a tool or are those the ones I can screw down by hand

 

Sorry I don't know the lengths. I did away with the CBS & used one of the existing braided lines I had direct from the MC it goes forward towards the engine inside the foot hanger & then across the back of the engine then into the swingarm & out the drain hole at the other end.

As you already have the bike, why not go to your local hardware store & get about 2m of 8mm hose & route it from the PCV under the seat via the swingarm & from the rear MC via the same route. This will let you wortk out the exact lengths needed, remember to allow about 20mm for the banjos & then order the hose & bolt up banjo's.
No special tools are needed with the bolt up banjo's.

 

Anyone have an idea in the us where I can get the two lines and the parts I need for this budget went way down after all the polish work I had done

 

If you figure out lengths and fittings, spiegler can custom make you the lines you need.

I'm not going to be able to do premade line because of the holes going through the swingarm
