Routing brake line on headlight equipped TXC?

I have replaced the stock number plate with an Acerbis DHH headlight. With the stock setup, the brake line routes over the number plate and has a guide so it doesn't get caught around the back of the number plate.

With a headlight, I have routed the line behind the light but when the forks compress it has a tendency to get caught around the front of the light. For now I took a zip tie, wrapped it around the brake line and tightened to about a 3/4" diameter. I then zip-tied that tie to the fork tube. I am not convinced this is enought so I have zipped the brake line to the handlebar clamp in a similar manner. I'll check out a TE at the dealer tomorrow and see how they are routed but maybe someone here has a better solution?

NC,

Some times you could fool the headlight location by installing the rubber mounting straps and black mounting plates on the outside of the headlight mounts, then put the screw heads from the inside and the nuts on the outside for cable clearance.

This widens the area from side to side and the cable will ride out wider and not snag..

Hope it helps

Chow, Carl

Thanks for the idea.
