Braided lines numbers

[Timber020]

My dear old GSXR has the dreaded braided lines. They were proffessionally made years ago and all this time have been nothing but good, way better than standard, no bulge lines. Its Wof time once again, and rather than go through the hassle of putting the standard ones on I thought I might get some engraving done. So what kinda numbers do they need to have on them?

666 has always been a favorite of mine - but each to his own....

Copy the numbers from your standard ones? Don't know if it will work but just an idea.

I run Goodridge lines. They always check them but they get through no problem. Here's my numbers:

FMVSS-106

Never been a problem or questioned. Use them.

Hahahah just went through the same thing. Luckily at someone else's expense.

They lines actuallt have this plastic shield on them and on the shield is printed a serial number. This serial number corrospondes to a test/check done on the line to prove it's "safe". So yeh get some fish tank hose and a vivid and make up a number and your sweet

It's not a serial no at all at all but a DOT standards number. It's on the LTSA site.

Yeah I've just put some braided lines on my bike which do seem to have some numbers on them so well see how it goes next month for my WOF. Keeping the old lines just incase a trade is required for a WOF.

Just got a set through Hydralink for the '76 CB550-Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaark'n expensive peice of brake line-made in Italy. Hope it's of better build quality than the Macchi aircraft I use to work on.................

They won't care about the quality of the lines, only that they have a number on them. If the number looks legit then all will be OK (hint hint)

I got mine made up by a brake and clutch place Auckland, they have a clear plastic coating so they dont scratch my frame and have an "SAE" number on them which is acceptable too. Special price (trade) was $120 for 4 hoses, not sure if I can get them for that again.
