dl650 k7 handlebar riser

hi all,

i would like to rise my bikes handlebar using aftermarket handlebar riser. I own k7 dl650-abs. I have heard that when the handlebar is rised the break hose became short due to abs system and needs to be replaced with a longer one (only for dl650 with abs). has anybody experienced it? do i really need to change the break hose?

thanks a lot

You might get lucky but several of the risers I've seen say the ABS needs different hoses.
