Braided hoses are one of the best upgrades you can make for your brakes, as for where to get hoses - I just go to my local shop and tell him what I want and he gets them Confused

Hi

Depends on the state of the original hoses really. Some people (such as me) prefer the feel with rubber hoses, but that is a personal thing.

However loads of places should be able to supply you with them. The cost will probably be £10~£15 a hose depending on the material (plated or stainless fittings, etc). Avoid those with alloy fittings.

All the best

Keith

yes.
get them all over...Busters is quite a good mail order company, tell them what bike you have and they cut them to size and you fit them! No worries...
I got mine from them at the NEC a few years back
