    1982 GS1100E brake hose replacement upgrade to stainless steel/ Teflon lines

    I purchased my 1982 GS1100E about 2 1/2 years ago and included with the sale was a new set of stainless steel replacement brake hoses. I finally got around to switching them out for the original style rubber hoses and I also replaced the pads with some NOS Suzuki/Ferrodo metallic pads and what a difference that made. I had a little trouble with the bleeding and I resorted to tying the brake lever back over night and I have a fantastic solid lever feel.

    I originally felt that the original Suzuki brakes were pretty good, but this is quite an improvement.
