CB400 brake lines.

Hi. Could one of you guys with a 400/4 do me a little favour. Could you measure the length of your two flexible front brake lines. Am using the lower 400/4 handlebars on my 350/4 as the riding position is better, and am going to get some braided hoses made up. Also, does anybody know if Honda ever made a CB400/4 with twin disks. I'm sure they didn't but the brake line man insists they did? Thanks in advance. Roy.

Bryanj:
Only for racing and it was a special cast magnesium fork slider for the other side

Norniron:
Looks like this guy on ebay found one!

Chris400F:
Saw the eBay ad, looks a proper setup. Wonder what master cylinder they used?

On the brake lines front, if it's not a silly question why not just buy some off the shelf lines if lengths are the same? e.g.

That's the thing. Already been down the off the shelf route and they didn't fit for some reason. The supplier says he will change them but he needs the correct lengths. If I can get the original lengths off a standard 400/4 I can check if the ones supplied are correct and its the 350/4 that's somehow different. If someone could get a piece of string and a tape measure on both flexible hoses, it would be a big help and greatly appreciated. Cheers.
