Putting braided lines on my bike now. Did anyone have problems removing the banjo bolts from their reservoirs? Started to remove mine and it was so difficult I thought it may have been reverse threaded but the manual says no. Would hate to strip this thing and make a large job from a small one.

Thanks,

Normal RH threads and should come apart fairly easily, could be binding in the banjo fitting. If the fitting gets cocked on the bolt it will bind wanting to turn the fitting with the bolt. Could be some corrosion on the threads too making it hard to turn, in this case be careful since you could remove the threads with the bolt. In that case I turn the bolt out until it gets hard to turn then back in and then back out again and so on going slightly farther each time until it comes out.
