Brake Supplier

[Micdalen]

Ran across this site the other night. Have to email them to get a price qoute.

https://www.cyclebrakes.com

Prices are not bad at all compared to rest the websites I have encountered. Attached is email on qoute they sent when I inquired for my 89 kat.

Who knows might offer a group discount, if it was discussed with them.

Here's the email:

Hi,
Sure, we can quote you the parts you need for your 89 Katana 750.

1. & 2. Galfer Lines - not listed for 89 but they do have a listing for
91-97 and the calipers and rotors didn't change from 89-97 so it's likely
that it's the same. I'll give you the specs for your to match against your
bike if you don't want to risk them not fitting or you have a 30-day return
policy.
Specs: Front, FK003D222 Rear is
Prices: front $89, rear only is $55. Front and rear combo is $119.

Color choices for the stainless steel brake lines are free and currently the
coatings are available in red, orange, yellow, green, blue, clear, smoke or
opaque black. The lines include banjo bolts and washers. Lines come with
silver colored fittings standard, but you may upgrade to Gold fittings ($10
per kit) or Aluminum fittings for an additional cost.

3. Rear rotors: Galfer Wave, DF316W, not in the country. EBC Round MD3002
or Contour are $132 each.

4. Front rotors: Galfer Wave, DF317W $530/pair (currently in stock). EBC
MD3003 Round (LS/RS) OR Contour? are listed for $190 each but would need to
see if they are currently in stock at our distributor when you order because
it is a busy time of year. We would know in a few minutes of your order and
they usually are available!

$33.99) EBC FA146 (Reg. $26.40/ HH $30.60), Rear Galfer are FD111 or EBC

Green or EBC.

That's a hell of a savings on the set!
Though their individual prices are more than I
paid for my Goodridge lines ($75 and $45)
Together they are the same price and in colors!

Yeah , most of those prices seem on par with other online retailers . And I wouldn't care much about ss lines for the rear anyway . One of our guys (letsride) can get the same stuff , and maybe for cheaper , since he's one of our guys .

Re: Brake Supplier

We also have speed bleeders at $10 each,

CyberPoet's SpeedBleeder Offer: full kit with all bleeders (4 minimum, depending on year) & bleeder hose starting at $27.00 including S&H.

As for some of the other things (pads, rotors), I find that it's often cheaper to order brake parts through my local dealer because of the S&H from other sources -- because these things are heavy and margins are small enough that a $8 difference in postage is enough to make the local dealer competitive or even cheaper than mail order.

And I wouldn't care much about ss lines for the rear anyway

I run SS in the rear. Figured as long as it was time for the 4th-year line replacement, might as well order the SS lines...

Wasn't trying to steal anyones thunder, came across their site thought I would inquire.

I apologize if I stepped on anyones toes. Was not intentional. Just seen alot of chat about lines, and availability of aftermarket brake parts for kats.

You didn't step on any toes -- we just wanted to point out that their pricing wasn't as good as it might seem on a lot of items, before you plunked down a bunch of your hard earned money. Don't get discouraged, and do post links
