Easy brake line question

[Guest]

I just recently completed a full brake job short of breaking down the MC(new piston, lines, cleaned, painted the calipers) and now everything is back together. Since my front end now is not stock I had to take a good guess about the front cable using a string and I might have gotten it a little too long. If you look at the picture now everything is routed and looks good and fits, but my question is the brake line when coming from the MC goes up, then back down to the banjo bolt. Will this cause a problem? Does it need to go to the side or down when leaving the MC?

Thanks,

That's why I prefer to make my own lines. No guessing on the length. That loop won't hurt anything, just might make bleeding a little more difficult. No big deal.

Just for kicks you might want to try looping the line over to the other side of the headlamp.

I tried that but its a little too short so this is the best fit so far. As long as it won't cause a problem then I'm good.

Now I have to figure out if I'm rerouting everything (clutch cable, ignition wire, choke cable, throttle cable) the way it was before I started the build because some of the cables are hitting the handle bar stop tabs and gotta feeling its not supposed to go that route. Do you know of any good threads with pictures of where everything routes through the frame on the front end? I couldn't seem to find any good ones. Thanks

EDIT: Nevermind, I found the routing threads, not sure what I was searching before

Doesn't matter how it is routed as long as it ends up with no air in the line.
