One of the guys at work wants to put the shorter front brake line with Honda style routing on his 98 KX125. Does anyone have any experience with what fork guard set up that this would require?

I can only assume you're speaking of the 05-07 KX style routing, where the brake line bracket mounts at the top of the fork guard then runs on the inner-side of the fork (closest to the wheel) then down to the brake caliper. If that's the case, then your best bet is to purchase a set of 05-07 KX 125-250 fork guards and attempt to drill new mount holes fork them.. They will NOT fit verbatim.

Saying that, might I ask why your buddy wants to do this?

His master cylinder needs to be rebuilt so he was going to buy a Honda one from Ebay. He figures that he might as well replace the hose with a shorter on while he is at it.
