Where can i find Stainless brake lines?

[eltoroloco]

I'm looking for new brake lines and i like the look of the stainless steel ones. I know there is an email adress posted on this site to a person that knows where to find them or can make them. TYhe problem is i didnt get any response. (after about 2 weeks) does anyone know where i can find stainless steel lines?

Hi eltoro,
If you click on the Search tab at the top of your screen and search for stainless steel I bet you find lots of posts about stainless steel brake lines.

Check the "Links" on the main page. I think I was the last one to post about them.

Check the Dennis Kirk catalog. They handle both Russell and Goodridge stainless brake lines. I installed Goodridge lines on SWMBO's H and Russel lines on Tsunami. Neither is cheap, but the difference in braking performance is amazing compared to 20 year old original rubber lines.

Stainless Steel Brake lines

John Stammas in Queensland Australia makes custom SS hose lines to suit the XS. They come in custom colours. I have the carbon fibre look on my XS. They noticably improve braking ability especially since the original hoses are getting long in the tooth.
If you're interested I'll have to hunt down Johns business card to get his details or you could try the internet. Hope this can help you out.

Where ever you buy them, DO IT !!

I used RUSSELL, but there are other brand's.I thought spending $120 for a set of lines was a bit steep, but after a weekend of rebuilding, bleeding and adjusting, I have rock solid front brake's.P/S.I used 21" down lines on my 81SH, but I wish I had used 19".I have just a wee bit too much sweep, but I will dress them properly, and they wont be a problem.I used a 19" from the master to the splitter, and it fit fine too. All the banjo's were 35 degree, and DOT-4 fluid.I can post pictures if you want.

I can supply a full set of 4 hoses, three for the front and one for the rear in stainless with clear hose covering. Based on the Standard, my FRONT hoses are 16" M/C to Union, 22" Union to Front Calipers. REAR is one hose run 19" that fits into the stock mounting clamp on the swingarm.

Tested to 2000 PSI, my hoses come with 10mm screw on banjo's (just like the goodridge) for $120 a set. That's my cost, passed through to you. Shipping is $7 anywhere in the continental US. Turnaround is 2 weeks to ship after reciept of order. Interested parties e-mail me back.

SS Brake Lines

Hey Crazy Bull,
Take your old lines and go to your nearest Harley store. They carry Goodridge lines(that's where I bought mine).

You can match yours for length, and banjo angle. Don't forget new crush washers (copper gaskets).

No waiting for 'em...... Ya get 'em when ya pays fer 'em!

Check previous posts, I posted info about replacing my lines earlier on this site.

If ya can't find it let me know and I will send it to ya....
