Anyone know where I can get a brake line made up to a specific length between banjo centres and with fittings left loose so I can line it up properly. No-one will do an off the shelf part because it's to fit my CBR's rearsets and needs a different fitting on the master cylinder end. My usual supplier , whose normal trade is JCB hoses and suchlike, has stopped doing brake hoses since the owner of the company died suddenly - he used to make them all up for me but the new MD (his son) won't take responsibility for brake lines any more. -- Lozzo Versys 650 Inter-Continental Hyperbolistic Missile , CBR600F-W racebike in the making, TS250C, RD400F (somewhere) BMW E46 318iSE (it's a car, not one of those 2-wheeled pieces of shite they churn out)
Try http://www.bsr-aerotek.com/default_001.html They made me up a braided oil line, and some other things a few years ago.
I looked on the HEL website and couldn't find anything regarding custom build. I'll gfet a price from Venhil, thanks -- Lozzo Versys 650 Inter-Continental Hyperbolistic Missile , CBR600F-W racebike in the making, TS250C, RD400F (somewhere) BMW E46 318iSE (it's a car, not one of those 2-wheeled pieces of shite they churn out)
I shall ask them for a quote too. Thanks -- Lozzo Versys 650 Inter-Continental Hyperbolistic Missile , CBR600F-W racebike in the making, TS250C, RD400F (somewhere) BMW E46 318iSE (it's a car, not one of those 2-wheeled pieces of shite they churn out)
Be nice to go and see the young lady owner in her bikini top and shorts in this weather cos she has lovely boobs and bum, but it's a bit far to go just for a brake line. -- Lozzo Versys 650 Inter-Continental Hyperbolistic Missile , CBR600F-W racebike in the making, TS250C, RD400F (somewhere) BMW E46 318iSE (it's a car, not one of those 2-wheeled pieces of shite they churn out)
I've heard from a couple of people who had bad experiences with HEL: wrong lengths, despite being specified and agreed, that sort of thing.
Not sure if they make them up but I've bought hose and banjo bolts from Earls in the past and made up my own length hoses: http://www.earls.co.uk/earls/index.html
The set I bought for the SV650S were bob-on perfect, no issues at all. -- Lozzo Versys 650 Inter-Continental Hyperbolistic Missile , CBR600F-W racebike in the making, TS250C, RD400F (somewhere) BMW E46 318iSE (it's a car, not one of those 2-wheeled pieces of shite they churn out)
I've just realised I have the Aeroquip importers at Silverstone, which is a little over a stone's throw away from here. -- Lozzo Versys 650 Inter-Continental Hyperbolistic Missile , CBR600F-W racebike in the making, TS250C, RD400F (somewhere) BMW E46 318iSE (it's a car, not one of those 2-wheeled pieces of shite they churn out)
B&C managed to get my HEL brake lines wrong three times, despite being sent the originals to copy. Someone must have thought that lengths should be accurate to 10% and angles to 30 degrees.
