Hey.. I'm on my BB and can't use the search function.. What's out there for SS brake lines for our bikes? Looking for quality and not too expensive.
Thanks,

I ordered from these guys last year see link http://stores.shop.ebay.ca/linespro__W0QQ_armrsZ1.  They are very good, and cheap.  You basically need to tell them what length the connection type, angle (between the 2 ends), then they custom make for you.  The ones I order has the front line a bit long, but it's my faults, it still fit, bit not nice and straight as I like.

HEL Lines, 50 bucks for front with shipping (that's what I paid). Very nice lines and you get to choose color of line and also color of banjo bolts!!

EDIT:
here is the link to front line for 04-08

the price is $43 now, so they probably charge some shipping, it's a good price anyways.

I've used Spiegler on my last couple projects.  I'm pretty happy with them.  They will make custom ones too.  I had one made when I swapped to clipons and got tired of an extra 4 inches of brake line looped around my bars.  I think it was around $55.  You just tell them the length, color, and what angle banjos you want and 2 days later it shows up in the mail.

Ive got goodridge, they fit perfectly and were only $90 for front and rear together and had free shipping. I found them on ebay, and they do let you pick any color.

one thing, almost all brands ive heard of include the wrong banjo bolts. the goodridge lines had 2 correct bolts and two with the wrong threads. So just reuse the stock bolts to be safe.

Spiegler is what I used.  Very happy with it.  Only did front as rear are already too touchy.

HEL ships/sells in the US.  I just did front and rear from them.  Make sure you try and ask for at least 2 of the finer pitch banjo bolts though (M10x1.25 I think).  They send out 4 of the course threaded ones in the kit, and the fittings were thin enough that that the OEM bolts were too long.  I emailed them and they hooked me up with the two bolts I needed, so they're ok in my book.

Now riddle me this, why the heck did Suzuki decide to use 2 different pitches on the banjo bolts?!
