Hi everyone, I have a 96' kdx 200 and bouht new russel SS brake lines. My Q is that im not sure which way the rear line goes on?? I dont have the old one. Its only one of 2 ways but either way doesnt seem to fit very nice. I know i have the correct one it just looks a little different then then the stock OEM(in the book). The line has a bend right at the caliper and is funky fitting both ways. I have the line on with the bend going out and up. I tryed the other way but it seems to hit the caliper with the way the bend is.,,, HeLp!!!!! PLease anyone?????? Is this right????
Help!!!

Call the supplier and verify that you have the right brake line for your bike.
If you do, then just do your best to make it fit right.

The banjo joint with the slight bend is the end that attaches to the master cylinder. You are correct that the bend goes up from the master. My guess is that the line has been "averaged" to fit several bikes. If the line doesn't rub on anything torque it to spec and check for leaks. If it leaks, send it back.
