Re: [ST] Brake Banjo's

["Rick & Joyce" <rnjwes@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The best-fitting tool I've found is a 9/16" line or flare wrench which is
slightly larger than 14mm.

After a heated 'conversation' with a Triumph Tech person as to the correct
tool for their removal, I replaced my OE banjo bolts with aftermarket 14mm
head SS ones and have never looked back.  A web search for 10mm banjo bolts
will yield a number of sources.  IIRC, ours are 10 x 1.25mm.
HTH,
