Hi,

I think it's not possible, because it need a great radius in order to assure the correct flow of hard black pipe. Need elasticity..... Of course it's not the better system, but mother yamaha provided this.:076::076::076::076:

Ciao.

Fit some fork spacers, they alter the ride height which moves the brake cable out of the way. You could move you bars forward this will push the cable forwards out of the way, or loosen off the brake mater cylinder & move the leaver down a bit, this will also move the cable forwards.

Just trying to help.

Get a shorter cable custom made to the length you want, seems to be your only solution.
