Magnum Shielding - Designer Series DOT Front Brake Lines For Harley-Davidson

Magnum Shielding Designer Series DOT Front Brake Lines For Harley-Davidson

Magnum's braided DOT front brake lines, ABS-specific and non-ABS, built to follow the factory routing. Pick your bike and the page shows the lines it takes – upper, mid (Touring and Trike), lower, and the Softail adapter – with the stock upper length marked and longer uppers for taller bars. ABS lines are marked "ABS" on the hose; running non-ABS lines on an ABS bike compromises the anti-lock system, so the page keeps them separate. Straight out of the Drag Specialties FatBook and OldBook application charts. Four braid finishes, matched to Magnum's cables.

How to order

1. Your Bike – pick your year, model and ABS / non-ABS.
2. Line – Touring and Trike use an upper, a mid-line and (Touring) a lower; Softail uses an upper and an adapter, plus an optional lower; Dyna and Sportster use an upper and a lower. Each line is sold separately – the page tells you which ones your bike takes.
3. Length – uppers list your stock length plus the longer lengths made for your bike's banjo. For a bar change, measure your routing (see the Fitment tab) and pick the matching length. Mid, lower and adapter lines are model-specific – one fit per bike.
4. Finish – Sterling Chromite II, Black Pearl, KARBONFIBR or Polished Stainless (not every line comes in every finish); Softail adapters come in chrome or black.

Measuring for a longer upper

• Touring / Trike (ABS): the 49" Designer mid-line is the reference – measure the additional length needed from the ABS controller to the master cylinder.
• 2018-up Softail: measure from the master cylinder to where the upper meets the lower-line manifold and subtract 1-1/2" (the adapter).
• 2011-2017 Softail, Dyna, 2014-2022 Sportster: pull the boot back and measure from where the flexible line enters the lower crimp collar up to the master cylinder.

Magnum and Drag Specialties part numbers for every line are on the Part Numbers tab. Closeout lines are sold while Drag's stock lasts. If your bike isn't listed, ask us with your year, model, ABS and bar height.
