Well I've had a different experience then, I like being able to have them twist in optimal directions to have them route just right. The rear line on my DRZ wanted to lay right on the rear spring and was a definite pinch/wear hazard. I had to zip tie it to hold it away from the spring. Not a huge deal but if I put Spiegler's on it I could have just twisted the banjo and the line would route perfect.
Now where would be the best place to order. I typically try to avoid the dealership at all cost. But its been an adventure online. And not a good adventure.
I'm already butt-hurt&have sand in my vagina,so FUCK OFF

Re: Need guideance. Braided brake lines
How is the fit with the coremoto's? I'm thinking about getting white lines with black banjos and bolts. I have heard that with other lines like spiegler and galfer that they tend to run a little long?
The fit for the coremotos are fine. Just installed them a few months ago and have no problem. The only problem was with the fitting lining up right on the catch underneath the brake fluid housing in the front. Ended up getting them to fit. No colony's since being installed. 05 gsxr.
i've only used spiegler. you can get them from sportbike track gear. skip the rear brake line and save some money, tho...

disagreed. being pedantic, OEM brake lines should be replaced every 24 months. given the use/actual fucking need of replacing them, however, after a few years, i would replace it. i have replaced the rear line on both my bikes, (09 and 06) merely by waiting til a "sale" was put on at the 'mummy.

agreed. but, most people change to braided lines before their stock lines are due for changing anyway. once the 24 months comes up, find what's cheapest for the rear...

cite a source that says there is ANY plausible reason to need to change the front lines every 24 months, let alone the rear which rarely sees use
