Previous owner of my 2003 standard put aftermarket two-line brake hoses on that are probably 8 inches or so too long, leaving a mess of excess hose flapping in the breeze.  I've replaced the hoses with proper length hoses, but I am struggling with hose routing between the headlight area to the clamps mounted on the fender.  Is there a "preferred" way to route these?  Anything that definitely should not be done?

These two holes look absolutely ideal, I guess they were probably part of the original brake line setup, is there a good way to reuse these?

    Those are threaded for standoffs.  I will try to look tomorrow and see if I have the bracketing you need.

Going by memory, could be wrong but that point is where the single line from the master cylinder
Had a tee and two lines went down for two calipers.
Seems that 20 years ago I eliminated that tee and ran separate steel braided lines. I’ll need to go look


Brake lines are available in custom lengths to ensure proper fitment  cooldude

Those are for the OEM front brake hose brackets.
