    Braided steel brake lines for GS1000S

    I'm sure the answer is in here somewhere, but I was swamped by matches for "Brake line".

    I want to put steel brake lines on my GS1000S when I swap the calipers for Concours units. Is there an existing set out there that will work? How about a Bandit set-up?

    I'm sure someone has already done this.

    TIA!

    Why not make your own set from Earl's parts?

    BTW, if you limit your search using the "titles only" filter, you will limit the scope to the search and get your answers faster.

      I will if I have too. Just wanted to save some time.

      I'll try searching again. Thanks.

        Here you go......my contribution is towards the end of the thread. If you have any racing or performance type shops in your area, you can walk in and buy everything you need off the shelf instead of ordering online.

            I got mine from Russel, I just measured my lines, first, and got the Zook fittings.

              GS bikes use standard banjo fittings so it's easy to build your own.

                  Thanks, all!

                  Turn out my local unaffiliated chopper shop (Departure Bike Works) keeps all this stuff in stock, at very reasonable prices.

                  Shop local, when you can!

                    z1enterprises.com also carries a full line of stainless lines and fittings.

                      I just received a set of custom brake lines from this vendor:

                      http://stores.shop.ebay.com/linespro__W0QQ_armrsZ1

                      Very nicely done, at a very nice price. I paid $36, delivered, for three custom lines for my GS1000.

                        I got mine from Z1, great guys there. I also dropped the splitter under the light bucket and ran the two lines all the way up to the cylinder.

                        In hindsight, this should have been one of the first mods I did. Huge difference.
