Front brake line

I found these (Galfer stainless steel brake lines) tonight and am wondering if you all know if they will fit or be a little on the long side preferably. They are said to be for a CBR or RC51. I've requested the length from the buyer. Any input would be great.

"They fit cbr rc 51 any bike with similar fork length" What the hell does that mean? Doesn't really narrow it down much, they've been making CBRs for over 25 years. And it's not only the fork lengths, having radial brake calipers will also add several extra inches to the length. I'd definitely get a length and/or a part# from the seller.

Same boat I'm in. It's hurry up and wait for some info. You would think a part# would be part of an add. CL has some gems doesn't it?

And this guy is a genius compared to the folks you'll come across if you spend more time buying and selling stuff on there (or ebay). But free always brings the special crowd out of the woodwork.

25.5 in long. Time to go measure the bike, and they look like they will fit (possibly be a little tight) . Anyone know the length of the galfer lines for the VTR?

I bought Galfers on ebay for my Bandit, forgetting that I had put taller bars on it, so I used them on the Hawk.

If memory serves, they were 30 and 32 inches long. I had very minor amounts of slack which was easily used up with creative routing so they fit pretty well.

What year was the bandit? The 30 in would fit a lot better. 25 seems too tight for me to feel comfortable getting.
