Brake line..
On the naked the front brake line runs right down the middle of the bike .Not a good look .If you move it to the BACK of the triple clamp
it hides the line .Much cleaner look and less brackets .
Before
after
Two tiny cable ties work well

Re: Brake line..
Like the idea and looks neater.
Not a fan of the ghetto zip ties holding it tho. Reckon you could make up a nice bracket and mount it to the lower tripple clamp bolts and it'd look the goods.

Re: Brake line..
I`ve got braided on with two seperate lines now on my gen2,but i dont think from what i remember the gen2 with spliter box was in front,and if thats how the gen3`s are,it does look a bit odd. So whats going to happen with your line under suspension compression and turning. I see where you`ve got it cable tied.?

Re: Brake line..
Are you talking about the rubber outer hose or the rubber bit inside the bracket at the top of the front guard.
If it was me I'd leave it there personally, to give the brake hose that little bit of protection against rubbing and wearing thru.
Not that it does a huge amount, but every bit counts as I've seen brake hoses rub thru very quickly at times.
