Bryanj:
Some braided hoses you can shorten BUT you will need a new crimp olive and they may not sell you that

paul G:
Rather than buying standard and cutting try these, I have used then a few times and they have been spot on.
You can buy all the bits and make your own.

Bryanj:
Be carefull with the female end fittings  as on a lot of them the Honda nut on the end of the steel pipe will not tighten down as you need a nut with the first two threads missing due to the fitting threads not being deep enough OR an Op 2 pipe end with a double ended olive in the hole.

I found out all this the hard way!!

Simon46:
Thanks HG. All the mechanics came out of the garages to look at him. I've not seen one of those in years they said over and over. I felt like a film star  :D

My front brake squeals even louder then the buzzer so you will still get every pedestrian look at you even after disconnecting it.
