I've got a new steel braided line for my front brake (along with a new OEM caliper and MC) and from what I had read I thought that the fitting that went into the caliper was a standard AN-3 like the line I got. I went to put this in, though, and it didn't seem to fit... Is there an adapter I need? What size would I need to adapt to? Would this be like it: http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/14/71/983/29454/ITEM/Goodridge-90-Degree-Brake-Fitting.aspx?WT.ac=SLIsearch

That looks like the end of the original solid line to me.

Thanks!

Paul
 
I used stuff like these in metric sizes to fit the caliper and mc.

What you are linking to is standard thread, the ones you need are metric to AN fittings.

Thanks Brian,

I'll hopefully have some luck at the local MC parts store this afternoon, figure the metric to AN fittings are probably pretty common.
