Clutch line length?

OK, i did a quick search and did not locate what I was looking for, so, does anybody know what the length of the clutch line is. I'm putting on a new Nissin master clutch with remote reservoir and the line needs to be 90* from what's originally on the bike ("96" Sprint 900).

Thanks

Glenn

Sorry, man. I thought I had a spare clutch line lying around, but all I can find are choke and throttle cables.

Cheers,

+1 for Goodridge being good stuff, but there's a major discount for ordering by length instead of buying a kit for your bike. (You only save about $10-15, but with the economy the way it is that actually matters to me right now. )

Cheers,

I have a clutch line at home. If you can wait until tonight I will measure and post the results.

Berniebikes,
Did you get a chance to measure that clutch line?


Much appreciated

Glenn

From the end of the banjo fitting to end of the other banjo fitting the length is 45 inches, or 114.3 cm. That is from a trident fitted with riser bars that are about 1 1/2" above the yolk. I suspect the bars probably had little difference as to the lenght of the line as I switched over to clip ons and didn't really notice any excess length.

Berniebikes,
Thanks for the info. My bike has the Storz Performance handle bar kit with a "daytona Touring" bar and the stock line fits just fine, but since I'm changing out the clutch master, the stock line, of course won't work.
