So, the front brake line has been leaking from the bottom out the braided part and under the plastic sleeve. Front brakes are a little wimpy now. So I looked all over Badweb but couldnt find anything about compatibility of brake lines or anything. Can I use just any 36 inch braided line? Thanks



See, that black part of the hose is shiny stainless braid above the picture!

Yeah, that's not good.

I think the M2 line is the exact same, if so it is P/N H0351.B and can be had for about $30.

any good ss braided line will work as a replacement.

I used Goodridge and Drag Specialties on both the S1 and RS. Of course I used universal lines and picked the banjos I wanted/needed for the custom approach.

your fender reflector blows.(not your fault) find a clear one to compliment the bike, use a heat gun\hair dryer to gently warm the adhesive so you don't mare the finish of the fender. I have seen clear one's on ebay a couple of yrs back. I have a personal hatred of orange Reflectors. sorry to thread jack.
