Just finished mocking up L74 quick change kit and I managed to get the OEM brake line coming from the ABS (keeping ABS for now) on the rear caliper.
I now need to make or find a tool for bending the banjo without marring it to badly. Any suggestions?
 
Managed to move the bike close to my vice and massaged the fitting so it now sits like this.

Next will be to shorten the bolts on the drive because of interference with the L74 plate.
 
What happens if you use a longer chain or if you change the gearing and the wheelbase goes out, can your brake hose stretch to accommodate?

Good point!

I tried running the lightech adjusters through the full range of motion and towards the last few mm the hose got a bit too tight for my taste.
Making a small notch in the plastic tray underneath the ABS pump got it better and after playing around with the routing it's got full range. The hose is long enough, but not the way it is routed from the factory (zip tied to the frame).
 
You need to check the length of the rear brake line against the full movement of the swingarm to make sure that it’s long enough. You can’t do that using a normal paddock stand. Use a footrest stand and then you can move the swingarm up and down fully. If the line is too short it will restrict movement.
