Barnett ABS Top Front Brake Line Kit, Black for Indian Scout by Barnett

Barnett ABS Top Front Brake Line Kit, Black for Indian Scout (SKU 251-40-51002)

Rubber brake hoses swell under pressure. The Barnett ABS Top Front Brake Line Kit, Black for Indian Scout (SKU 251-40-51002) brings a firmer, more consistent lever.

Brake lines carry fluid pressure from the master cylinder to the calipers. Braided lines expand less than rubber hoses, giving a firmer, more consistent lever.

About This Brake Line Kit

This kit replaces the top front ABS brake line on the listed model. Choose the size that matches your handlebar setup.

Choosing the Right Length

This line comes in 7 lengths: Stock, Plus 2", Plus 4", Plus 6", Plus 8", Plus 10", Plus 11". Choose Stock for stock handlebars. If you have taller bars, risers or pullback bars, measure how much longer your setup is than stock and choose the matching "Plus" length.

• Measure the stock routing from the control to the end point with a string, then measure your new routing the same way.
• The difference is the extra length you need.
• When in doubt, contact us with your bar or riser brand and size.
