Brake Fee Ing does Snap, but cold sweat on installation

The brake fluid has been replaced once a year, and the master cylinder and carry-over hauler have been done regularly, but the brake hose has not been replaced since purchase because OEM parts were not available and there were no problems (since 1998). (since 1998).
The Crimp part of the vehicle Hose has rusted and the decision was made to replace the part. Diversion. not "Conform" I purchased a Swage line that had a

I did a driving test and found that the Brake pedal's Stroke and Brake gains were straighter than before.
The reason for the 3 stars (Zero stars if you can't process it) is because of the Brake hose installation (I am a certified mechanic), What? Seriously?" This is because the The first is This will never work." The second is It's different from the Original, but that's okay." 。
First, the vertical angle of the Banjo was the same as the OEM Hose, but the horizontal bend was different and the straight shape interfered with the Spring in a straight line. So, I managed to install the BanjoStopper by shaving the BanjoStopper part of the MasterCylinder (I had to shave a little extra).
Also, the banjo angle on the Caliper side is Straight, which is different from the OEM angled banjo. This was OK without modification, but the hose is a little attached to the up side.

I very much appreciate the product setup for a very old Motorcycle. I would be happy if you could review Banjo's Setting for Rear as it is currently the only and only option and I will purchase the next one.
On the MASTER side, 20 degrees up/down Right bend (I think 45 degrees is OK too) or OffsetKit, and on the Caliper side, 20 degrees up/down OEMLevel." is a good idea. View detail

Suppose Brake Fee Ing is Snap

The brake fluid has been replaced once a year, and the master cylinder and carry-over hauler have been done regularly, but the brake hose has not been replaced since purchase because OEM parts were not available and there were no problems (since 1998). (since 1998).

I was able to install the Brake hose with no problems (I am a certified mechanic).
From the time I was bleeding the air after installation, it was somehow better than before. Snap and Sense." felt higher.
I did a driving test and found that the Brake lever Stroke and Brake gain is now a straighter Fee Ring than before. (I don't have a comparison car and can't easily undo this. Clearly compare the differences." I can't do it, but not only myself but also my kids who usually drive felt the difference).
Breaking performance is satisfactory, but I was dissatisfied with the condition of the installation, so I gave it 4 stars.
In the natural installation state, the hose protector did not reach the vehicle bracket (steel plate part), so the hose could not be secured. As shown in the photo, the Vinyl type was installed and secured with Tie Wrap.
If the Protector had been a few centimeters longer, I could have installed it without thinking, which is my only regret. View detail

While replacing Master Cylinder

We had no complaints about the OEM Rear Brake Hose and had no plans to replace it, but since we obtained a Master Cylinder with an integrated tank, we decided to change the Hose as part of the replacement work.

I had been putting it off, partly because I thought it would be somewhat of a hassle, but since I was going to replace the MASTER, I did the replacement work all together this time.

People often say that changing the rear brake hose to a mesh hose makes it easier to lock or harder to control, but I think it is a matter of habituation and preference, and since recent motorcycles are equipped with ABS, locking is not something to worry about. I think it is a matter of familiarity and preference.

If you plan to replace the OEM hose by yourself, it is very difficult to remove the OEM hose without a flare nut wrench or ratchet glasses, so it is better to prepare them in advance.

The first step is to remove the iron pipe from the ABSUnit and the rubber hose connection block, which is a terribly time-consuming process without ratchet glasses or other tools.
Next, I loosened the ABSUnit nut. I was misled by the description in the instruction manual of the mesh hose that the Flare nut is an Opposite Thread Screw, and when I turned it to the Right side, it snapped.
The ABSUnit side is a Normal Thread Screw, so it must be turned Left when loosening.

Then I had to remove all the fixings and pull out the OEMHose, but it was so difficult to pull it out that I thought it was the wheel of wisdom.
I think it is better not to remove the ABSUnit Fluid as much as possible, so the Fluid in the OEM hose leaked and the post-processing was Large strange. (Mystery)
Always like a book artist, yo! Yo! Aaahhh!

As for the difficulty level of the replacement work, I found the Rear side to be larger than the Front side, so it may be safer to ask a reliable shop to do the work.

Lastly, after the replacement, I have a feeling of safety with the tightly touched mesh hose.
I may have the impression that this tightly is difficult to Control on the Rear side, which is operated with the foot, but I am satisfied with this Touch for me.
It looks Stylish and has little deterioration over time, so if you are thinking of replacing it, you may want to do it sooner rather than later to get used to it. View detail
