| easy fix about 30 bucks, just did the hole line on mine, best thing to do is go to the indy shop and get them to measure the lenth of line you need and what size bango fittings. one for your master and one for the t split and about 3 ft of line. get the fittings that just screw on. you don't want to buy a pre built line which will cost you about 100 bucks. the fittings hook up kinda like your tv cable lines real easy.

| I'm guessing you want to replace the line from the master cylinder to the T fitting with a little longer one 
Check this out, http://www.russellperformance.com/mo...e/dl/12-13.pdf
you could contact them and tell them what you're looking for and they could prolly fix you up. Clear coated braided hoses is the way I'd go if I was replacing brake lines.
Measure from the m/c to the T to find how long a line you need.  Russell Performance Products for Harley-Davidson® Motorcycles

Are you running them through the bars, either way be sure to stagger your cuts so the new joints are not all in one area, or you'll have a bulge in one area.
Also I prefer to pull off the terminal housings, (Mark it down black to 1, red with grey stripe to 2 etc. for reassmbly)
Butt join them together and cover with heat shrink, cut them so the colored wire and pin stay intact so you insert your "stretch area" between the cut, that way you don't have to re-pin the wires and they retain the correct color.
