I regularly change my brake fluid and I understand the reasons behind the practice. That said, I also know that it is recommended that you change you brake lines every 4 years. While I am a proponent of performing preventative maintenance I am not sure about the need to replace the brake lines based on time alone. I ride my bike on sunny days only, it has never seen rain and I keep in my garage when I am not using it and it only has 11,000k on it. I inspected them and they look fine. I am looking at about $200 to replace them and I am not convinced that I need to at this point.
Do the rest of you abide by this recommendation?
I know CP does because I am reading his book (The Art of Katana) for the second time. I gotta put this thing down. Very well written and a great source of knowledge but I am obsessive compulsive and every time I read it I add a plethora of activities to my already massive task list.
