DOT Extended Length Touring
ABS Lower Brake Lines
Upstate New York based specialist Magnum
Shielding says it is finding that one of the most
popular performance upgrades for ABS Touring
models is the addition of radial brakes and/or
aftermarket calipers for increased braking ability.
When doing so, the caliper is relocated, resulting in
the stock brake line to the caliper being a few inches
too short. Indeed, replacing the stock caliper with an
aftermarket version can also cause the same type of
problem. "As always, when there is a demand for a
particular product, Magnum Shielding comes to the
rescue," says General Manager Tom Vierthaler.
"In this case, by designing a brake line that mounts

on the bike just as if it came from the factory, but
with length options so it can reach to the calipers."
Magnum's extended length lower brake line options
fit 2014 and up Harley-Davidson Touring models
with ABS. Selections include both dual disc and leftside
only lines in plus 2- and plus 4-inch length
increments. Left-side only lines allow for easy dual to
single disc conversions when using aftermarket
calipers on one side, "showing off that great looking,
expensive tire and rim combination or when
installing a big wheel kit." Additionally, the left-side
only lines are also available in the stock length.
Premium braided Designer Series extended length
lower brake lines for ABS equipped Touring models
incorporate CNC precision bent tube assemblies that
fit the OE brake line bracket "like a glove." Add to
that Magnum’s highly polished, chrome or black
chrome plated EZ-Align banjos and fittings "for a
recipe that makes for trouble-free installations."
Manufactured with inner PTFE tubing, braided with
DuPont Kevlar aramid fiber reinforcement, they
feature a premium Magnum STERLING CHROMITE II
or BLACK PEARL braid that color and weave matches
all other Magnum control cables and brake lines, and
a crystal-clear outer PVC jacket "that offers
exceptional protection against scuffing paint or
chrome and will never discolor.
"These DOT brake lines are designed to be
compatible with Harley-Davidson ABS requirements

for stock and alternate lengths. Aramid fiber

ultimate in high-performance braking - a great
addition to your customer's brake system upgrade."

wires. Every Magnum Shielding brake line is
