Ok, I've finally got hold of a rear brake caliper for my brother's tourer, but it's for the wrong side! It looks like the only difference is where the pipe attaches, so could I get a longer pipe to compensate?
Thanks for any ideas...

I can't see a reason why not, except that the flexi will probably corrode much quicker being more exposed to the elements at the bottom.
Come to think of it, there'll be no rigid mouting point for the flexi -> brake pipe.
Which side did you need?

Which would be an MOT fail, btw.Chris-W wrote: Come to think of it, there'll be no rigid mouting point for the flexi -> brake pipe.
