Just to throw it out there, another option is one line down to right caliper, second line over to left caliper. Not often done on this bike, but done all the time on other bikes.If bubbles run uphill, don't they congregate at the top of the crossover line?

Yet when we bleed our brakes we bleed from the top down so to speak? ....I beg to differ. The caliper bleed holes are at the tops of the calipers. Bubbles in the vertical lines rise to the top and sneak out the little holes in the master cylinder bottom when you first pull the brake lever.
I have Speigler 2 lines from Murphs'. Had to order longer lines because I have bar risers. I like the 2 lines. no problems with the 2 lines It's a cleaner install. Just specify that you have risers and they need to be longer than stock.+1
I am still intrigued by the thought of routing from one caliper to the other.the C14 utilizes that configuration, but I personally would just install the normal 2 lines from the master down, simply because if you ever damage one on the road, you may have issues finding a replacement quickly. It is an older model bike, so I try to keep it simple.
Has anyone done this on a concours?
Is there a special bleeding procedure on the sportbikes which have such a setup?
