    Just wondering if anyone out there has fitted extended upper brake lines to their Fat Bob... I was hoping to fit some 1 3/4" burleigh rollers but it appears there might be issues with extending the upper brake line??.... has anyone out there come across this issue yet?... apparently the issue is with the abs...

    May be a dumb question but why should the abs make it dificult to change a brake line?
    Especially an upper one.

    Dunno Pappa Smurf... that's what I've been told.... I'm a technical/mechanical moron when it comes to this stuff.... I looked at the upper line and thought...yep... surely that could be changed to a longer line...from the manifold up to the lever.... apparently not that simple tho...or is it?....

    Looks like I might be waiting awhile before I can fit some burleigh rollers....bugger!!
