Did I get it wrong (again you may say) or does it look like the steel line runs up to the master cylinder?
Which means it is flexing as the forks move up and down.
But the relatively immobile caliper has a rubber line.

Nah - hit CTRL and + and zoom in (CTRL and NUMPAD 0 to reset). You can see the rigid pipe is just the bridge. What looks like a pipe running up from the other side is in fact the cast spoke of the V4 Honda wheel in the background.Originally Posted by scumdog

Maybe it was all in an effort to extend the mudguard - those fender extenders are expensive you know.

Was this actually purchased from a shop????A nice bloke just brought in this bike to have a brake declaration done to get his mint looking CBR road legal. He had recently brought it and had received it in this condition, in his defence he didn't really know too much about bikesSpot the problem...........
Shit like this shouldn't be alowed to be done. Words like poor, shoddy, unprofessional and crap spring to mind.buyer beware!

hmmm, the directional tyre being on backwards, or the fact that all the braking forces are now in tension and not compression as designed. Also its hard to tell, is it just the forks, or triple clamps that are backwards, if its the triples the trail would be severely effected to say the least

it was just the forks, easy fix. very hard mistake.

Rubbish! yous have got it all wrong.
This is just the logical "fixit" when a daughters hockey shin guards are not available.
Did you not see the "Bastardisation" that was strapped to Stroudy's brakes on Boxing day?

Wouldm I be wrong to be concerned about the callipers being literally ripped from their mounts ?

While the ultimate strength of the fork mounts would certainly be higher the other way around, there's no way that they're going anywhere as they were. They're far stronger than you'd think.
