    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.

Brake line replacement

Hi, I have a 1978 gs750e which appears to have the stock brake lines and I would like to replace them, but I don't know how brake lines size, like I do not know if they have different sizes in girth (I can find out length pretty easily). Basically I am hoping to just plug n' play, but that hasn't been the case recently.

Do they fit differently with different banjo bolts and brake master cylinders etc, or no?

I'm hoping to replace the stock front brake master cylinder with a new (preferably gs) front brake.
 
You can source all the parts separately and make your own, but I would recommend you buy the lines made up as a kit (which you can do) I am in the uk I am sure someone will come along and recommend a supplier in the USA Z1 enterprises seem to be very popular.
 
When I visited SoCal a couple years ago, I was looking for a clutch cable (because the one on my bike broke) at a motorcycle parts store. I asked the attendant where I could find replacement brake line...They suggested a local business shop and to bring the original brake line. BAM! It costs me less than $20 and now I have a braided line.
