I want to fit some better brakes to my T8 in the next few days. I've got the uprated master cylinders and I've lovely Brembo billet calipers to go on - but I don't know about the hoses.

The bike has currently got twin Goodridge braided hoses running from a double banjo at the M/C end to the standard calipers.

The M/C end is no problem because I'm replacing that with an ST4S unit - almost identical to standard but bigger bore and pumps more fluid.

However, I can't remember the hose fitment at the standard calliper end. Straight? 10 degree? 90 degree? I can't look at the bike because it's in Fordie's garage 10 miles away and I haven't got any photos of the bike that show the lines clearly enough.

The billet callipers look as if they'll need 90 degree ones, so with a bit of luck if the standard ones do too, then I can just use the same hoses, otherwise I'll have to get some more made up.
