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.

I tried posting this question last night, and even got a notice that there was an answer to my question but was unable to retrieve it. It doesn't even show up on the Q&A. So here it is again: I'm trying to get some advice on putting braided steel lines on the antidive (as well as the rest of the brake system) of my '82 GS1100EZ. Is it worth doing the extra lines to keep the antidive working or is it best just to disconnect the system. I'm trying to get the mush out of the brake feel. Thanks
 
theres a hundred riders here that will tell you YANK THAT ANTI-DIVE NOW.
and save the braided line money or do both.
I want to find info to on going to the braded, like where to get them.
so do tell us all
 
I personally like to disconnect the antidive and replace the weak fork springs. This way I get less dive and brakes that are solid and easy to bleed. Disconnection is easy, just remove the line and use the banjo bolt from the antidive at the caliper. Then just put a rubber plug in the antidive hole so moisture doesn't get in and ruin it. If you must keep the antidive check with Russell, they used to have a 5 line kit for your bike. When it comes to bleeding the system, I would follow the procedure in the factory shop manual.

I would like to know if Russell has a web site for the sale of the braided brake lines.
