    brake line too short.

    okay so i'm about 6' tall. I shouldn't be riding a 250 but i can't magically whip 7 grand plus mods out of no where for a 450. I'm looking at universal riders from dk and the one i wanted is 5". Now every cable is long enough [or i can make long enough] but when it comes to the front brake lines, there is a deffinate problem. Does anyone know where i can get an extended front brake line?

    no, I mean universal risers. never seen 'em? check them out. All bars besides OEM are obviously universal.

    Any extended brake lines for the 400ex will work.

    I was just talking to my brother, he thinks that you can only get longer ones that are steel braided, so I don't know what to tell you. There is a slight chance that the stock 400ex cable may be longer than the stock 250 cable, I would look into that.

    You know now that I think about it, the 400ex cable should be longer since it is a lot wider. That's just my guess though, but you can get stock 400 cables at www.planethondaracing.com
