Rear brake hose
The hose going from my rear brake reservoir to the master cylinder on my k2 curvy is dry and cracked and needs replacing. I've seen bikes with what looks like clear rubber tubing in it's place. Can you use any similar thickness tubing or must it work to a specific pressure?

Re: Rear brake hose
HRC Brake Tube kit or Equivalent (See Yorkie Chris)
Stopper needs a breathing hole Some say the HRC kit sweats but I have had mine on for 3 years been used in November at an icy Oulton to use in Spain in +30 C at Almeria with no sweating. There has been a suggestion there are fake HRC kits out there I got mine from Jap performance in HRC packaging. The tubing is special otherwise the brake fluid will react. |
