Thanks Bro.

 

notice I replaced my brake hoses with Swage PLot steel Braided ones?

I saw a Bonneville and a Scrambler when I was at Mah last week.

anyone know how much is the Bonneville and Scrambler cost in singapore(MAH)

calipers were flushed and brake fluid replaced together with the hoses. Braking power improved but would be more solid if I had twin calipers in front instead of single.

 

I also wanted to put on Goodridge as that was what I used for my Kawasakis.

but they didnt have the "measure and cut" type anymore.

I needed 87cm infront and 52cm behind which is quite rare.

 

In the end, I used 85cm front and 56cm rear which work just as well.

Only Swage Plot available. Price quite reasonable so didnt think twice.

I meant the calipers were cleaned.

 

I wont go track with this bike. shocks too soft front and back.

Which shop doing Hel brake hoses will you receommend?

I was lazy so didnt bother to search.

 

Perhaps I'll take the TBird out for a ride tonight after dinner.

Planet Motor got HEL S/S line, front and rear cost $200 with installation.i just changed last saturday.

 

Vector one quote me $235 for line & installation.

[Throttle]

thx Sev,

 

So Swage PLot is indeed cheaper. $180 with installation.

[Throttle]

$150 for 3 brake line applicable to any bike model? That is dirt cheap! However, do they include bleeding and cleaning of caliper? I did enquired regarding HEL brake line for my model and was quote $290 for overall package. The one thing about Speigler, its swivel banjo is aluminum, not steel. Since brakes get flush annually, the strength of steel outweighs the lightweight and non-corrosive nature of aluminum.
