Since I'm putting so many performance things into my GS, I figure I'll do the lines too... Found these on Ebay, just wondering if they'll work with my '89 clipons and my '02 MC/caliper. They say 95-97... I know the brake design changed somewhere in the early years, but I can't think of any distinctions in the 95-97 model years (at least not in the brake system)... anyone? Dgyver?


Oh, and don't buy all 4 of them before I get home from work tonight, PLEASE! :laugh:

Hang out there, we may flame, but we don't hate.

My attitude is in serious need of readjustment, and I'm ok with that.

The brake pads changed, but the lines will work. You can get a braided line from MAW for $36 shipped.

The lines for any year will work. The lines have not changed.

The maw ones are the cheapest, but I ordered from HEL. They cost more but I really prefer to have normal looking black brake lines and the HEL ones let you pick one of several colors (yes, I chose boring old black). They're $49 each and ship free, so not that much more. Of course when you select the GS500 your only choice is the kit with front and back lines for $98, although the website claims you can buy a single line for $49. No idea how you actually go about doing it though.
