2011 Ec200 Rear Brake Line + Swingarm

[Coby_p]

Has anyone else had an issue with their rear brake line rubbing against the swingarm to the point of having deep gashes in the swingarm? I filled the low spots with jb weld in the mean time, but i find it hard to believe that its supposed to do that.

Post some pics. I only had it rubbing against the engine but just loosened the banjo and turned it slightly, but I have the Hyde swing arm guards so the hose does not contact the swing arm at all on my bike

I have! Mines rubbed the swingarm and the engine casing. I did like Matt did and roatated the loop away from the case a bit, and just put a bit of tape under the cable on the swingarm. Its worn through too.. I guess while it shows signs of wear I don't consider it excessive. Bikes done 9000kms or more now (who knows.. trailtech shat itself).. It'll go a few more kms yet too.

I wish i would've taken pictures before I jb welded but to the left of the brake line holder closest to the engine was where it was dug in pretty bad, the rest of the spots were minor.
