    I did a lot of checking on this for Spiegler when they made their first set of SS lines using mine as the pattern. Everything looked as if the lines were interchangeable through all years. I compared handlebars, fok legs and many other pieces

    I have a question for you all... I have been interested in getting stainless brake lines for my PC for some time now and just bought a set from a place in Ontario CA by the name of G&J Aircraft and Competition (www.gandjaircraft.net)

      A question that I have is what is that rear brake line for? I have never seen a PC with anything but a drum rear brake. ----- Original Message ----- From: ridearoundtheblock<mailto:

          I have a set made for me off PC lines by a company in Crestline, CA. There are actually four lines needed for the PC; three for the front brake and one for the clutch. Dick MacInnes

              Granted the cost/benifit ratio is skewed towards cost I find the braided SS clutch line to give the clutch a better feel. It disengages earlier in the pull probably because the line is not flexing and using part of the travel. The Guzzi came

        I got the rear line for my 919. the PC has 3 lines for the front brake. One from the master cylinder to the splitter mounted to the front lower triple tree bracket and tow from there to each respective front caliper. --- In

      Winglet got a set of Spiegler (http://www.spieglerusa.com/) brake lines a few years ago. Considerably more expensive, excellent service, and available in various colors. The red lines with red banjo bolt

      Just so you know - any FAA certified shop that makes aircraft lines (brake, hydraulic, fuel) can whip up a set in about 20 to 30 minutes max if you have the measurements or the original lines in hand. Tim Boan Red Dwarf II To:

    Aloha- I would be quite interested in the SS brake lines for my PC. I installed a pair on a BMW I once had and the improvement was significant. Gary
