Galfer front brake lines for about $99
VS
Used OEM brake lines with calipers from a 03 Kat $40
Pros?
Cons?
Bike: 98 600 Kat
Reason for changing lines:
So I'm having problems with my front brakes (low pressure). Have rebuilt the calipers, bled for about a week and went through 3 12oz cans of brake fluid, rebuilt the master cylinder, bled, bled, bled and still very low pressure. Have done all tips suggested (bleeding, master cylinder, tied the lever to the bar over night a couple of nights and so on), so now I'm thinking the brake lines might be the problem. I bought this bike two months ago, it had been setting out in the driveway for about 5 years.
I'm thinking of replacing the brake lines with a set from Galfer for about $99
However, since I'm not sure this will solve my problem I thought about buying a used set of oem brake lines and see if this fixes the problem. I found a complete set of lines with the calipers for $40 off a 03 600 kat.
