Brake lines
banditman Sun 23 May 2010, 11:33 am
have noticed an increasing sponginess to my brakes recentlym that has developed since new (4000km) Not air (check by bleeding) but think it could be the standard brake lines. Brakes still work well but could be better. Anyone know a reliable source of quality stainless braided lines?

I just fitted a full set (front and rear) of Hel braided lines to my 1250S. After looking around i ended up getting them from a mob with an English website but operate out of Bulgaria. My son also bought lines for his Aprilia from them a few months ago .
Very good customer service and communication from them. Delivery time a bit slow around 2 weeks, but i would highly recommend them. I too was getting a spongy brake feel more the rear than the front, but after fitting the lines (pretty easy job that took all up around one and a half hours front and rear) the most time was spent bleeding the front brakes.

The lady i dealt with is Sue Toy at sue.custombiker@hotmail.com
I paid around $AUD 120 including postage for the front and rear lines.

They look like a good deal. It says on the web site they comply with ADRs, is there a stamp or similar on the brake lines?

No nothing i could see that indicated ADR approved. They look exactly the same as the Galfer lines i fitted to my DR650.
