    I've been looking all night, including in my Honda Service Manual (the giant bible that the Honda techs have) and I can't find an actual length for this.

    I'm looking at raising my handlebars and I'm considering swapping the lines and cables for a nice fit.

    I know there are places that sell them in longer length (Convertibars is one) but I want to check to see if I can get them made locally for a better price.

    Thanks in advance!

    I got a used set and brought them to a local line shop. He reused some of the t-blocks etc and copied the stock set exactly while I was still riding.

    I may have my old set to pass along but won't have time to look for a week or so. You might check eBay in the meantime.

    No rush if you have your old set (Non-ABS?) ... I'm not in a hurry at this point ... just picking up the odd'n'ends as I go.

    I have PAIR blocking plates and Oxford Heaterz (waiting on new bars before doing this) to install as well.

    Whatever doesn't get done this year, will get done over next winter. :)

    What did you do for longer throttle cables? I think Motion Pro sells them, but I just don't know the stock length.

    Poop, mine likely won't be the best option since I'm 5th gen.

    Haha ... likely not, then. :)

    I'll just grab a used set off eBay if I can find some cheap (I have non-ABS but dual-linked ... 2002).

    Anyone know what the length of the front brake line is stock? (the one that attaches to the master cyclinder)
