Anyone know how long a M2 front brake line is? I'm wanting to raise my handle bars a couple of inches.

Not sure on the overall length but there is enough slack in the line to raise the bars about 2".

Not sure I agree. I jacked the front up til the wheel was off the ground and most of the slack is taken up.

I have a Goodridge stainless line, when I put on Blast bars, no problem with the length. Stock line, I couldn't say.

Well, I'm using blast bars too, with the stock brake line. I'm tall, wanting to get the bars higher. I'll have to try to get an acurate length with the brake line on the bike.
