It's difficult to say for certain what forks they are, but your motorcycle has leading axle forks which were used on various Ltd & CSR models. I'd guess they're from a 750-Ltd, but that is just a guess. Also, the forks are raised in the triple tree, so that will affect what brake line lengths to get. I wouldn't order anything until you can get to the motorcycle so you can figure out what the correct length should be.

Thanks a lot. Okay it seems like I need to do the 200km round trip to avoid having to return too many brake lines.

You could do as Nessism suggested & fabricate your own brake lines. See his reply on previous page. He has a write-up w pics somewhere here on KZR. probably in his restoration topic. Then do the Fr brake when convenient.

Ahh yes, I did not even see that. But I think I run the risk of having problems with MOT here in Denmark, if I fabricate my own, unfortunately.
