    'Superbike' brake lines

    Anyone know if the Galfer 'Superbike' steel braided lines are road legal?

    Apparently the only difference to the standard ones is that they bolt straight in to the caliper, with no banjo bolt, supposedly giving better feel. Any opinions on this would be welcome too.

    Cheers all

    Depends on what is stamped on them, or whats on the non removable tags. No rating tag/stamp, no road legal.

    The banjo bolt has a smaller hole in it, allowing less flow...

    I have galfer, has the numbers etc on it. Jaison at Motostyle is bringing them in, they also have the numbers, but the outside of the ones I saw were not steel outside, sheethed in plastic *I think*. Only problems with the black ones is that the numbers are very hard to see, as the writing is also black.

    As imdying says, its the numbers...

    I've been making brake lines for nearly 10 years now, seen most of the brands. In my opinion, the Goodridge lines are some of the best quality street legal lines I've seen. I guess most bike shops can get them.

    /edit: Flows not a biggy, the pressure is more important
