Core ? Is that the make ! If they do a twin line set up , opt for that . Use a good fluid and get your self a nice lever , Brembo or pazzo , wow !the braking difference is superb , That kerb will never see your front wheel again !
There in USA sort of like hel lines Look at my eBay link a few pages back Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk
For what they are listed at plus postage hel and goodridge are cheaper Sent from my Nexus 4 via a satellite in space
My handy hint for the day. When bleeding brake lines, make sure your bike is on the side stand and the bars are on full left lock. The increased hight of the master cylinder, and its angle, will prevent any air being trapped in the M/C.
For custom lines or unpopular models these are good Goodridge Build-a-line Kit http://www.busters-accessories.co.uk/productinfo/560592/Braking/Brake-lines/Goodridge http://www.brakes4u.co.uk/Goodridge_Motorcyle_Build_a_.asp?sortit=5&pg=1 I had a set of HEL lines on mine but I changed the front brake set up for a pair of Nissins and matching M/cylinder off a CBR600 and needed longer lines than standard , so I now use these Buy all your banjos , bolts and lines separate ( lines only come in clear or carbon look but can be bought in 25mm increments from 225mm upto 1500mm ) Baz
This sounds like a good tip. But now I'm thinking... When you're bleeding the system - you're pushing the bubbles down out of the caliper - so in theory wouldn't it be better for the reservoir to be as low as possible? Ideally I guess you'd want to take the caliper and put it on a spare disc above the reservoir as the bubbles will rise...but that would be a load of work. Or maybe take the brake lever & reservoir off and hold it on the floor as you do it...So the caliper is above it. How about somehow injecting fluid into the caliper bleed nipple - so that the bubbles rise and pop out of the reservoir? Maybe I'm talking out of my arse...but logic tells me the bubbles want to rise...by pushing the fluid down out of the caliper we are fighting against physics arent we?
Due to the thickness of brake fluid it pulls the air down the line with it or did I just make that up on a serious note you have air in the lines so as your bleeding pressure makes the air exit the bleed nipple easier may of made that up aswell lol Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk
Short of pulling the M/C off and wiggling it around, there is always the possibility of air being trapped in part of the M/C when the bike is up right and the bars are straight. Caused me 3hrs of headaches (cos i have several heads motherfuckers!) on the zxr until i put the bike on the sidestand and watched a steady stream of bubbles escape from the M/C into the res.
It's called reverse bleeding and works very well in a lot of cases. Get a NEW oil can and some flexible hose, fill the oil can with fresh brake fluid, connect the hose to the bleed nipple and the other end to the oil can. Open the bleed nipple and squeeze the fluid in until it reaches the reservoir. Repeat for both sides job done.
