I've got a set of executive bars that I want to fit to my rgs, I don't want to muck around so would like to get a top brake hose made up ready to swap over as I believe the rgs one is a tad short.

Does anyone have an idea of the length of the top hose fitted to the executive or rag.
 
Pretty straightforward to work out the difference in height between the two bars? I'd hazard a guess that an extra 2 inches would do the job. So tell your hose supplier to lengthen their RGS item to suit.
 
Top front brake hose is approx 350mm in length.

You will probably need to replace the top choke cable too which is approx 550mm long on the outer cable sheath.
Clutch and throttle cables - I think you can get away with the RGS items.

Done a similar thing a while back...........new top brake hose with fittings- centre of banjo to end of male fitting 400mm. (350mm hose as per Ian)
Clutch hose will need lengthening also from memory 1150mm-1200mm at a guess.

Pretty sure the stock RGS bars allowed for a banjo either end of top hose....... but with exec bar sweep curve, a straight male fitting is required into the master cylinder, to get you back over the fork leg.
