Can any one steer me in the right direction to where to get new front brake lines made? It seems they are all one piece from the front master cylinder to the calipers. I would like to add length to them.

Spiegler USA can make custom lines.
https://spieglerusa.com/brakes/brake-lin...lines.html Galfer USA site says they also make custom lines but web page not complete like the Spiegler site. Aloha, Huladog Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I haven't checked, but I believe Galfer has an order sheet you can download to specify what you want/need and then fax back to them. I have Spiegler lines on my CBR and they are fantastic. Also, Spiegler has a kit for the CB1100: http://www.sportbiketrackgear.com/spiegl...mlar-orig/ They also have for the rear and clutch.

You can just phone up either and talk to a tech.

I had longer lines done at a local shop. The challenge was that they couldn't get the "one into two" setup like the original because the lines are pretty much sealed to that Y splitter in the middle. So I now have two lines running from the master cylinder to the brakes. Works fine, but not as elegant. I hope you can find a better solution.

Every custom line maker told me 2 years ago that y splitter was not possible, so had to do the two lines from master.

Cool. Wish I'd have seen that a few months ago. Oh well. This setup is getting the job done.

How did you come off the front master cylinder with two brake lines (one for each side)??

They make banjo (?) end thingies that can be stacked, so there are two coming off the master cylinder. As I say, not elegant, but it works. I'll take a photo tomorrow when I'm futzing with the throttle cables. |
