Who makes braided brake lines for stock setup 750K5?
« on: May 04, 2017, 04:47:04 PM »
So I'm trying to get a better front brake - gonna start with braided lines.

I want to keep using the metal pipe leading to the caliper and also the in line brake light switch. So I'm looking for two brake lines, the top line is about 15" and is banjo to banjo, the lower line is banjo to female threaded flare pipe. (who am I telling, of course you guys know the stock setup of a K5).

I cannot find a simple braided for stock configuration replacement set - everyone seems to have banjo to banjo single long lines.

Anyone know of a good source? Thanks

I just found him and sent him a message. Great to see they have a discount code. I just want to make sure I get the right setup. I think this one is probably it:

I guess he sizes them based on what bars you have. This and new banjo bolts and I'm probably set.

EDIT: I just ordered the set. Seems correct. Thanks for the discount code!
