  • Eh crap...

    That didn't take long...only 50 miles on the lines and somehow one ruptured bad enough that I had to RTV over it just to limp home...



    In talks with Galfer USA now about replacement.

      ****e! That doesn't look like it was fun.
      Any paint get hit with fluid?

      Looks like quite the kink on the way to the caliper. Is this the Kawi?

      I just ordered a set of Vehnill's. Hope they work out better :P

      Let us know how well Galfer takes care of you!

        Yeah this is on the Ninja. The banjo orientation on these lines is very strange. A lot of tight curves right up from the fittings. Makes you wonder if they're put on right but this is the most logical orientation I could come up with.

          I think that Venhill uses full swivel fittings... but I've not seen a set of them myself in person.

                  New line is on its way.

                  Yeah, I'm an idiot and put it on backwards. Again, if there were any instructions included I probably would have known that...

                    Hey in Kawasaki terms the correct way is backwards. So, what your saying is you put it on the most logical way you could and it was backwards? Makes sense.

                      Don't need no stinkin' brakes. All they do is slow you down.

                        Better to go skidding through to a stop light than not stop and get smacked by an on coming semi. My HEL lines work great. Just sayin....

                          seen it many times
                          thats Galfer quality for you...
                          I have nothing good to say about any of their products, its all garbage.
                          i have seen new brake pads in the package with the pads pulling away from the backing. pads falling apart in chunks, chunks of metal in pads, brake lines that burst, lines that leak, fittings that snap off extremely easily... just GARBAGE

                          HEL, EBC or Russell...
                          hell even some of the cheap ebay lines and rotors are better quality
