Brake hoses

Post by conti-mental »

There are all sorts of options out there for braided hoses, but I'd rather keep it all original with the correct Brembo rubber hoses - are they still available?

The bike is a '75 900ss (RH change)

Cheers,

Andy

gio has some lines that look close-but you'd need better pics than on his site,apart from that i would think the only op is make it yourself.i've tried to find original hard brake lines and rubbers for brake/fork bracket to no avail

Hi BM ;)

I've had the details of Gio's hoses, but they're not *quite* right :(

Looks like black coated Goodridge is the way forwards - not a big problem

Steel Braided v. Rubber

I would go with braided for performance - the rubber hoses expand a lot more! A fellow I know purchases braided line in bulk and whatever connectors are needed, then makes his lines at home.
