Front Brake Line Routing on my 83 RZ350

#1 Post by b-bike393 » Sat Jun 11, 2016 3:25 pm

I bought my bike in pieces so I didn't disassemble (don't know where everything goes yet)
I'm almost ready to mount my front brakes brake lines and I'm not sure where the line splitter mounts.
I think it goes on the front of the bottom triple clamp. Little help please. :smt023

You are correct. It mounts to the bottom clamp behind the horn mounting plate. Note the RH caliper hose goes on the bottom.

Thanks heaps. The splitter did fit there but with both holes on the lower triple clamp being threaded, I was thinking that might not be the correct location. This makes me feel better. :smt026
