    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Black SS brake lines..who makes them??

Buddy wants to get black SS lines made for his 82 GS 850 G. Both the front and rear ones. Who here can make them and quote a price so I can let him know??
 
I don't remember who offers them, but I have seen them.

I got a used set from a member here that were the usual plain stainless, but covered them with heat-shrink tubing, which worked quite well.

Well, they looked good, but one of them leaks. Now I need to find out how to fix it or replace it. :-k

.
 
I ...obviously..cant make them for him. So I told him I would ask around the forum. He needs the front and rear ones at stock lengths. Premade and sent to me so I can give them to him. I can ask him if the silver would be OK but i think he was thinking black so they look like stock.....to a point.
 
Does he need to measure them for the Rennsport folks??

If the bike is stock, Raymond has a lot of specs on the lengths and etc. But it is safe to obviously measure and give the angles. That's what I did and everything worked perfectly.
 
Have had Raymond make up 4(?) sets so far.Got what I ordered every time.Just don't order the red lines,got some for my 85 750 and the coating didn't last a year.Clear and black seem to be good.
 
Paragon Performance-- I had them made for my gs750 but in smoke over stainless, they offer 4 colors, but I'll bet black is a special order, Give them a shout.

Z1 Enterprises sells black Goodrich hoses as another option.
 
I used Spiegler hoses with smoke color covers, they are almost black.
 
I ordered from Raymond @ Renn Auto, and the service was fast and outstanding. Order placed by phone Monday morning and lines were here on Friday. Excellent service in my opinion. Lines fit perfect.
