Rear brake line rubbing, beware!

[kman2061]

I was cleaning the bike before work today and I noticed the rear brake line rubbing on the shock resevoir. There is an 1/8" deep groove in the rear shock resevoir now, no damage to the brake line. You guys might want to take a look at your bike just to make sure you dont get the same thing going. Good thing I still have one more month of warranty left!

This is on my 2008 1125R. I have no idea what the brake line routing is like on the 09-10, but it might be the same.
