I am replacing the handlebars and decided while doing so to replace all the front brake lines. I purchased the Magnum brake lines but having a problem with the install of the front lower line. Where it attachs at the bottom of the triple tree there is a guide pin. The stock brake line has a cut out but the magnum brake lines do not. For those who have installed the Magnum front brake line, did you just remove the guide pin? My bike is a 2009 Ultra Classic with ABS. Here are some pictures so you know what I'm speaking of.

 

FedEx just deliverd mine today and in the box stapled to the flyer in the box is a slip of paper that states:" NOTE, Lower brke Kits. Some stock touring models are equipped with a locating roll pin on the mounting surface for the lower brake line manifold. Remove the roll pin before installing this brake line kit."

 

There's a YouTube video of a guy doing the Goodridge brake lines on a bike with ABS. Same concept. The lower lines and tee are the same though. Use a pair of side cuts to grab the roll pin and pry it out. Watch the video it's easier than explaining it.

Thanks. Guess the piece of paper didn't get put in my package. I removed the pin and finished the install.

 

Worked like a champ with the side cutters!
