    Hi all,
    I'm fitting twin braided brake lines on my 07 blade. Looking at the HEL lines, there's a rubber grommet on each line. It's not immediately obvious how to attach the lines so they don't flap about/fray, etc. On the left hand side, there is a line attachment from the original over-mudguard line which I think could be re-used, but on the right side, there is the T-piece, so don't see how the line could be attached.

    If you guys could take some photos of how you've fitted yours, it would be really appreciated!

    Thanks in advance.

    I fitted twin HEL braideds to my old RR4 so basically the same.

    Not quite sure what you're meaning though. Perhaps some photos might help?

    Could you not just get a couple of little P clips either side? Even if you didn't mount them it wouldn't be the end of the world as long as it's bolted to the bottom yoke.

    My bike is buried at the back of my garage over winter, but if you can see by the following pictures that I have my hoses cable tied to the top O/S fork and then P-clipped to both sides of the front hugger before they reach the calipers.

    I got some stainless pclips with rubber on the inside off ebay. bolt through where the manifold originally attached on the one side, and use existing on the other. Also changed the first one the line goes through from the cylinder to a larger one which holds both now.
