[Ducati] Re: Front brake hose routing (98 916)

[Shane Frank]

Thanks for the pictures.  I know mine has never had 
anything like that. I found out why my hose was 
hanging so far back.  I had routed the brake line
down from the master cylinder differently than
it had been before (I found a picture I took before
I took things apart).  So now the brake line is
above that groove, but there is nothing to 
hold it in.
