Rear sets 2003 BCR with ABS

Post by HarrisBikeNut »

Bought a lovely set of rear sets for my BCR. Bike is a 2003 Randy Mamola version with ABS. Tried to fit the rear brake side today and it would appear that the rigid fluid pipe does not allow the master cylinder to move much. The rear sets came from a NON ABS 1100S - is the pipework different? Is the pipe that supplies the rear master cylinder with fluid a flexible pipe on the non ABS model?

Mine is a 2001 non-ABS model and that has a rigid steel pipe from the master cyl to the joint with the rubber flex pipe to the caliper,
I just replaced the whole thing with an aeroquip SS armoured hose in readyness to lower the foot pegs.
