Noobee here with '11 dl650 ABS.
There are plenty references to the need for a longer brake line if you put on up and back bar risers on an ABS bike.
Any idea whether the longer brake line is needed with straight-up risers? Specifically, I just bought some dirtlys, which are 1" higher. The eyeball test indicates some more length is needed but maybe theres's a workaround?
It would only take about 10 minutes to find out for myself, of course.
But I'd much rather learn from someone else's mistakes than my own:mod2_wacko:
If the line is stretched to max, any downside? Thanks for any assistance!
