Front Brake Hose
05/07/08 at 10:42:54
 
Just dropped into the local Suzuki dealer to ask about the cost of a new front brake hose for a 2004. His response: $234.80. I said: No, I didn't want the entire brake assembly just the hose. His response: $234.80, just for the hose. I live in Canada and I'm starting to think that the 'S' tattoed on my forehead doesn't stand for Superman. The Ron Ayers site lists the OEM hose at $63.80. Am I reading this right?

Yep the $63 sounds about right.   My dealers website shows $76 but they are usually higher then Ron Ayers.  But they ship faster.

They sell those stainless steel brake hoses on ebay by length from 12" up to 54" (priced $18.99 to $39.99).  They are listed for "harleys", but would they work on the Savage/S40?  What length would ours be?
