SuzukiSavage.com - brake line

nateordie YaBB Newbies Offline impossible is nothing Posts: 37 Gender:	brake line 04/03/13 at 12:12:15 I swapped out my handlebars recently for clubmans and got bigger shocks for the back to raise up the rear to give my savage a different look. I now need a new shortened brake line. Ryca sells a 30 inch one for 75 dollars. Does anyone know of a place I can get one for cheaper? Thanks.

Most people use a 30" length - I used 31" with mine as I used a different master cylinder.

Shipped from Canada, but I don't think it took very long to get here when I ordered mine. http://www.ebay.com/itm/SUZUKI-LS650PY-CUSTOM-STAINLESS-STEEL-BRAKE-LINE-HOSE...

EJID,
what fittings did you use?

Here is the note from my original order...

"Hose 1 Fittings #1 & #4 (10mm Straight & 10mm 45 Degree) Length 42" (end to end including fittings) Angle: Type C (90 Degree)"

I used this cable to extend my brake line for putting on mini-apes (from a FXDWG) and if I did it again, I would add another 1" in length (almost too short). It's been a while now, and I'm not sure if the Angle Type C is the correct one to use, seems like I had a little trouble with the angle, but I would have to look it over again to decide. I was happy with my purchase though and would use them again if I need another line.

Good luck

I believe I got angle C = 0° and had trouble with it also.
I ordered clear covering, but that doesn't last too long.
If I order again, it'll be black.
