250R Rear Brake Line Length

[Mr. Sandman]

Does anyone have a stock rear brake line off an 85/86 250R they can measure? I need the total length, end to end. Thanks!

I have a stock one here that I measured for ya, and from eye to eye, I got 25 1/2 inches.

[Mr. Sandman]

Thanks InPiEcEs, now to clarify, from eye to eye I assume your talking from center to center of each banjo bolt hole, correct?

[InPiEcEs]

Yes, that is exactly how I did it. I used my old stock line, and measured center to center.
Are you planning on aftermarket brake lines?
If you plan on going to a stainless braided line, generally, they come as the line only,and the fittings are seperate Each fitting adds about an inch plus to it, so if you bought a line, you would buy a 23 incher, and with the fittings bolted on, it would be 25 to 25.5 inches.

I'm extending my swing arm 4" and need the correct length line. I'm currently using a SS line that is not the exact same length as the stocker and I wanted to make sure what I get will fit perfectly. Thanks again!
