i know know aircraft fittings with braided oil cooler lines aren't a requirement for on the street but for on the track are they? also what about the line running from the rear brake reservoir and fuel line? doesn't that have to be like that as well? none the less i want aircraft fittings and braided lines for all of that. who makes stuff like that and where can i purchase it? |

I get a ton of that stuff from Summit Racing,I made a ton of oil,fuel, and water lines for my race bikes with their stuff. Brake lines are different, lots of brands out there--call Al at American Sportbike |

Don't know about LSR or drags but in road racing, you have to safety the fittings but there are no material requirements for the lines themselves. If you can't wire the fittings, usually they'll let you put a booger of JB Weld to prevent it from unscrewing... HINT: only a booger - not a huge amount that will make it impossible to knock off with a screwdriver tip!! |

For the brakes stick with the pre-made stuff. Goodrigde is good tends to turn dark under the sleeve. Drag Specialties has their own line of lines and fittings. For the other stuff you got choices. Summit has their own line of stuff. Then you have Aeroquip, Russell and now Mr.Gasket has a line up. So many choices, so few dollars..... Just did the oil lines on my S1. Went with the Mr. Gasket Shadow series. Purely a color choice here. Silver/Black instead of the usual blue/red. |
