Bought them off Banggood about 1.5 weeks ago and I'm not seeing them anymore when I do a search for them (but I can "see it" when I log into my account and go to order history), both had a 90 degree angle on one end to go to the master cylinder and I think it was 30 degree on the other side to go on the caliper, 10mm opening on both sides for the banjo bolt, and 60cm length for one and 110cm length for the other.
Sorry I'm no help with the links Weld  I will keep my eye out and post up when they come back, maybe out of stock or they are updating to new lengths/quantities ???

No worries. I can certainly take some measurements when the time comes. Thanks.

It's official... I think I'm blind
 !I installed some T10 connectors and slapped some Phillips 194 / T10 LED lights in... and they are a tad bright to say the least  much better than the crap it had before  but like I said... my cones/rods are burned from all the light

Quick light spritz of spray paint to tone it down

Well there's your problem
So I finally found out why the Chain Guide was taking so much damage and why our Bashan would make strange and evil noises every so often
Guess who put a "hex head" bolt in a place where a "button head" screw/bolt was supposed to go... That's right... just some more of "Manny" and his wonderful "Professionally Assembled Floor Model" problems to deal with... Over time the chain decided it wanted to eat the bolt... grab onto it... and rip it out the swing arm... it would also rattle up and down causing premature wear on the chain and guide Oh well, the fix shouldn't cost too much and will be easy  , I can remove the old swing arm and drill/tap for a bigger bolt... or I will probably just buy a new swing arm and other parts, or a few chain rollers and build a custom bracket for them  Time to take several measurements and see if the CSC TT250 Swing Arm and all those sub parts will fit on my Bashan 200... Other than buying a new swing arm in the near future... I am ordering a few 31mm Chain Rollers and will make a system of 3 rollers to keep my oh so nice Unibear chain from eating the Swing Arm

Dirt is character, or at least that is how I justify holding off on washing mine...

I know I'm in the vast MINORITY here but I wash all of my bikes (if I get them dirty), garden tools, hand tools, mowers, weedeaters, garden tractor and completely service my chainsaws and store them all lubed, adjusted, and clean after almost every use, so whatever I need is brand new and ready when I need it next time. I hate people like me. ;-)
I really think this habit has to do with scraping together and hiding pennies around everything my X-wife was taking at the time, to be able to buy this stuff. I literally bought one chainsaw with side work, and collected aluminum cans and bottles. She couldn't take those! ;-)

There's a reason I buy things like "Subaru, Jeep, Kawasaki, Chinese Dual Sports, Honda, etc."... if it's not scratched, dented, dirty, or muddy with a few broken/missing pieces... I haven't been using it right
It really does need a cleaning... it's been a few rides and a month or two without a good wash with an oil bath to finish

Chain roller was too loud for me, I kept looking around thinking something was about to go wrong on the bike/engine/transmission... took it off and slapped this on, problem "solved"
As you can probably see in the "fitment/clearance test picture" I still need to buy a longer "button head" style bolt, only thing I had on hand that was long enough was a 100mm threaded rod... the pic angle makes the rod/nut look a lot closer to the chain then it really is... going to ride the bike to the "nearest" hardware store (about 50 miles) tomorrow and pick up what I need to finish the project Shouldn't need another chain slide/guide for the life of the bike after this
