Hey guys put a +2 stem on my 400 and I need to know the best ext-brake line for the job!!!:confused: :confused:
before you go out and buy new try and see if you have enough line as there is some slack in the stock ones.

I did...I can barely move the bars without it wanting too snap..I even took off the bolt too give it more play just too tall!
Ok just wanted to make sure lol.
You have 2 real choices:
1. A stainless kit that is 2 separate lines and has 1 banjo bolt on the master. You line the lines themselves with zipties of clamps.
2. A stainless kit which replaces the entire front line setup with a 1 into 2 like the stock setup has-

Thats a good example.
I did option 1 and I really like how little effort my front brake lever needs to stop they took some creative routing and I ordered +1's anyways. Do option 2 if you can.
In order to bleed everything good your gonna need a handpump type bleeder-miteyvac comes to mind. It took me a good 20 mins to get mine good and I dumped tons of fluid in too (I was recycling the good fluid after I flushed the bad junk out).
