front brake

[snowman88]

i have a '78 honda cb550k and the brake fluid isn't fluid anymore, it has turned to sludge. i was wondering where i can get new break lines for it and also a rebuild kit for the rest of the brake. thanks

I've only made one purchase from them but, found them very easy to deal with and excellant quality.
YMMV

There's a guy on eBay selling braided lines for the Honda bikes for $60 a set - 2 lines so $30 each.

I bought my jets from them they were the cheapest option had a great selection and quick shipping they also have stainless steel braided brake lines in whatever length you need them in for about $25. I will be getting mine from Z1 when I get around to putting front brakes on the thing.
