Which braided brake lines for SV650?
I'm thinking of changing my stock front brake lines to braided ones. The HEL lines seem very popular here but they seem to sell them as a kit, front and rear. I'm not after replacing the rear as they're too strong as they are for my riding style already. Do you recommend any other brands from experience?

I recommend that whichever ones you choose, get the stainless fittings rather than zinc. |

Goodridge are also highly recommend on this site equally to HEL, make sure you get the Stainless!
You cna get front only kits from HEL. |

Just visited the Goodridge site,
http://www.goodridge.co.uk/buy-motor...oses.php?mk=11 SV650SX-SK2 99-02 Front: SU0655S-3F @ ?65.99 Front Race: SU0655S-2F @ ?45.99 Rear: SU0655-1R @ ?23.99 What's the difference between front race and front, and why is it cheaper? |
Re: Which braided brake lines for SV650?
I think the front is a 3 piece kit, using the original splitter block, where as the race is a 2 hose kit, with 2 hoses going straight from the lever, just bought the race kit myself, but still to fit it.

Go for the race setup, its simpler neater and cheaper. |

I see you're quite right guys, the race is a two piece whilst the other is a three. I'm guessing the race would not be so tidy but maybe more effective in braking?
The HEL lines are a little more expensive; HEL Performance Brake Line Kit 2piece front, one piece rear ? 49.36 Front / ? 24.68 Rear |
