Anybody making braided oil lines here ?
« on: May 22, 2017, 07:35:15 AM »
For a 1970 CB750
I'd like a set of braided oil lines (cloth or stainless)  would like the stock fittings or something similar.  Ideally, would like the bottom fitting on the oil tank to be a 90 degree or shortened if possible.  Working with a bit of a space crunch.
Yep, I'm the kid that figured out how to put things back together...eventually.

Raffi aka Edward Morris made me a set and they are sweet!

Shouldn't be too difficult to find a place that will crimp ends on. I got a few done locally for $7 per crimp.
All you gotta do is do what you gotta do.

Nobody in my town.  Traffic getting to the out of town places makes paying a bit more worth while.  I'll PM Raffi
