[fs] Braided Brake Lines

[gamgee]

I haven't got a clue what they are worth, so for a start could someone let me know that, they are off a VFR400NC30, I am only using it on the road so have no use for them (well no legal use for them)

[fs] Braided Brake Lines

Are you selling some ?
Do they have the correct Cert numbers on them ?

[gamgee]

I don't know anything about braided brake lines, if you tell me where to look i'll go take a look tommorow, how much are they worth roughly?

[gamgee]

FS = for sale, yes i will be selling them if i like the price

[texmo]

Price will vary a lot depening on weather they have standard markings, you have a leagl use for them if you can ride any good that is. They stop brake fade. Give you a much better sense of braking too and will make you stop faster.

[Warr]

No idea on the price or if they would suit my '90 VFR. But they need certian numbers stamped on the nuts or the crimp ??
Someone else may know exactly what and where.

[texmo]

Standardised markings will be on the lines look at the ends...

i. used to substitute OE hoses only, and

Do your lines have markings ??

[gamgee]

i'll have a look tommorow and let you know any numbers etc that are on them

I have seen them. No they are not legal for the road.

cool cheers, so does anyone want to buy them? what are they worth? as i could use the money to go towards other repairs

[Sniper]

For a VFR race bike, but Im not sure what they would be worth sorry

Open your market up mate, don't be decieved by their previous application ;) They're just a banjo banjo hose, with an end to end length (measure from the centre of one eye to the other). In reality, they'll fit anything jap, so long as the length is good :yes:

[gamgee]

oh yeah so what sort of price should I sell them for like $50? or less?

[imdying]

Shit like that I generally throw in the toolbox, and give it to a mate in need when the time comes.

How 'bout 10? The bolts and washers should be replaced if they're going on another bike. LBS used to make them to size for peanutes but haven't seen any place that does them out here.
