You'll have to get some and tell us if they're as good! That set was $65 for front and back which is a good price. The pittings are the compression fittings so it should be pretty good.

Yep, I have them on my bike. Paid like $75 for the front and the rear. The yellow colored line look kinda queer becaus the yellow sleeving is transparent. The performance is great but the fitment was not that great. One of the front lines is too short to fit in the stock routing clip. They sealed up fine on the first try. For $75 it was worth the minor PITA to install them

[godtilla]

and the rear...

those are nice looking godtilla. you get yours from ebay too? need to upgrade my brakes...all stock for now,,,

[godtilla]

Yeah, got them off ebay, came with washer/gaskets and bolts that didnt fit---I ended up reusing the stock washers and bolts...Put the EBCs in at the same time so of course the brakes were much improved...But the lined made the brake lever noticeably firmer

godtilla, you sure you got te same ones?

Just asking because the ad said

"Front Brake Lines: A single line from the master cylinder to each Cylinder, seperately"

And you have it running a stock config..

I would also probably put a little extra heat shrink around the ends of the fittings where the plastic sleeve stpos and the fitting begins. (Less dirt & crap in there that way..)

[godtilla]

Hmmm, those are the ones that I got...I wonder if I f'ed up routing them and thats why I had trouble. Good Idea on the heat shrink, but would it slide over the fitting and still shrink small enough to seal the line??

Std shrink maybe not.. but you can find 4x shrink it works great. (I used to work for a distributor and had a piece left over and it worked great.)

thanks for the review. i think i will just get the ones from the local shop. bout $75 for just the front, but there's no shipping, and i dont use the rear brake anyway.

I have the ones from ebay and it came with blue clear tubing around the lines and they shipped fast. I havent installed them yet....anyone wanna help me do that?

aaahhh steve, you dont know how much i would love to have the money to do that! You would have a blast here....but it would cost $1500usd for a trip from melbourne to augusta via Air New Zealand.
