RE: [ST] SS Brake Lines?



Galfer brakes makes a kit for the front, as well as rear. I ordered both, but only installed the fronts, as I thought the 5 year old hose was just expanding from age. But, it's all in the master cylinder, which I am converting to the Brembo Radial unit when it comes in. The lines are quick and easy to do, but trying to bleed the system when you have a bad master wastes alot of time, lol.

I just did the conversion, but now need a master cylinder, as the feel is exactly the same, with all the proper bleeding techniques. On my other bikes, it makes a world of difference. But I cannot verify on my 00 ST..

Something to that effect, maybe not SS but kevlar lined?
