Picture request, 2012 14r and extended swingarm
I just got a used 6-12" McIntosh alumi-pro swingarm. Doesn't matter what brand you have could you please take a picture or two of how you have your brake and TC lines run with a long arm.
I'm sure this has been asked before but how long of a stretch can I go with the stock brake line and TC wire?
Thanks!

My brakeline is a 10" over Goodridge, TC wire runs under and inside of the swingarm, straight as possible from the caliper, then the slack is tied up with a zip tie on the backside of the Tigertail.

You only need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape.
If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40.
If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

I got my brake line from Schnitz and my receipt shows it as "Brake Line 10" over, Kawasaki ZX-14" Don't know what the total length is.
TC wire is easily long enough if you remove the ties at the frame before it starts down to the swingarm.

Thanks Lucky 4 trying. My last galfer brake line is a little to long and to this day drives me nuts every time I look at it lol
The pics you guys have shown above the line is nice and neat. Hope to copy. 10" over is 38 I think ?

Local shop in downtown Garland Tx: Mr C Upholstery
He has been doing seats for many years.
The seat is actually from an older 14. It has to be built out to fit the 14R seat cowl as it is wider, but it bolts right on.
