Does anyone know the standard length of the front brake hose? A full length set up (i can't remember if they're a 3 line split set up as standard, but I'm talking about twin straight through ones either way

They are a 3 line split but I and others have gone to a 2 line when we've replaced them. Sorry I can't remember the lengths but as I have different master cylinder and callipers, my dimensions wouldn't help much anyway .... and if I re-ordered I'd add an extra 4 or 5cm - the length of mine is OK but just about on the minimum limit.
Don't forget that we get a good forum discount from Hel for their braided lines.

I have a set in the garage, but I'm trying to figure out if they're stanadarx length ones, or extra length from when I raised the bars.

no worries buddy, off the bike the lines look deceptively short.
My full set of 3 lines look like they fit a noddy car not an Italian stomper
