Techna-Fit

I have heard good things about the Techna-Fit SS brake line kits. They are also considerably less expensive. Got a set ordered that I am going to try on a Special.

I have used the Chacal lines as well.

Happy to see a mod so easy to buy

This is a mod I plan on doing to both of my bikes this winter. I'm glad to see something so easy to do and cost effective.

Let me/us know how they work out for you. I hope Chacal is keeping up the good work.

Just ordered

Emailed Len and just ordered replacement brake lines. Easy to work with and had all the info. Looking forward to making the swap.

A bump as I have not been around much and many new members or lurkers may want to check these out.

Just a bump.

BUMP. So more options can be shown for a member with questions.

XJ4ever.com Brake Lines

+1 here on these brake lines. They are exact fit, easy to install, no mods needed, and you will like the way they look on your bike.

All of the banjo fitting bends are spot on, as if they were made by Yamaha themselves. They even install the rubber grommets for the hold down clamps. Could not ask for a better product for the XS1100 brake application. The lines are DOT approved. They come in rubber or stainless steel braid. Different colors are available as well. You would never consider making up your own lines after having seen this product.

Just installed them on my Venturer and have not road tested yet. I suspect that there will be much improved brake response. Will post that evaluation as soon as I can test them.

Cost

What's the cost?

Click the link in Rasputin's initial post in this thread and that'll take you to the page with the parts and prices but send an email to Chacal first
for the current prices before you cut a check or anything.

Just put a set of these lines on The Time Machine. I really appreciate being able to buy what I needed here without any hassles of trying to configure something on my own. Good fit and worth the price!

I have to apologize to you as I thought 3 phase was the first to install these lines. I had forgotten that you had done them. Please forgive my oversight.

Rasputin,

Thank's for the heads up!

The parts are arriving for the brake system overhaul and Chacal sent the brake lines PDQ. It was simple enough to figure out what I needed from the link you posted. After a few e-mails I bought the new brake lines and the order was shipped so fast the brake lines won the shipping race with parts I ordered a week ago. It was probably the cool XJ engine logo on the outer package seal that did it -- outstanding!



Priority Mailed braided stainless steel sheathed brake lines.






Front and Rear are O.E.M.-style three front lines and two rear lines that will connect to the original rear hard line and mounting tabs on the swing arm.





This is nice. When all of the rest of the parts I've ordered are actually here in my hands then I'll start tearing down Columbo.
