as in not gold line?  The reason why I ask is because it seems the brake lines connect to the bottom of the masters instead of the side.

All right, headlights lowered, clip-ons are installed, wasn't too bad.  Think I want some new break lines for the front.  If they were shorter, seems they would fit a lot better, not all bent up behind the headlight.  There was a clearance issue with the reservoirs though.  They are rubbing on the clip-on mounts.  I ordered a clearance adapter that is supposed to adapt your stock controls for use with clip-ons.  Anyone know what this part looks like, or is anyone using it?  Here's the link  http://www.monsterparts.com/pc/ADAP/Clutch-Brakes/ADAP.html.

While I had the bike all apart, I cut some holes in the airbox lid.  What a difference that makes, sounds totally different. I'll post some pics later. Thanks for the help.

Awesomeness! Post pics! That-s odd, my reservoirs fit just fine...

Nope no goldies here.  Mine shunt fluids out the side.

You are still using the stock MC brackets yeah?  You can make your own out of stuff from the hardware store and/or mount them from another place that allows you to fit the MCs.  I've got mine mounted from the headlight bracket 'ears' on bent Rizoma brackets.  This is a pre-clip on picture but it looks like this:




Am i seeing it wrong here?  The bottom right picture has some sort of line connecting to the bottom of something.  if my orientation is correct, it seems it is the brake side

oh the banjo bolts... I thought you were referring to the reservoirs still because of the fitment.  Sorry- yes the banjos hang as you see them.
