    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I am going to be ordering some SS brake hoses from Z1, I plan to order the following:

TU03-6051
Brake Hose 10MM STRAIGHT BANJO FITTING x 5

TU03-6053
Brake Hose 10MM 35 DEG BANJO FITTING x 2

TU03-6055
Brake Hose 10MM 90 DEG BANJO FITTING x 1

TU03-6193
Brake Hose Black Coat 32'' With Chrome Swivels x 1

TU03-6118
Brake Hose Stainless Steel 21" Clear Coated x 1

TU03-6119
Brake Hose Stainless Steel 22" Clear Coated x 2



Does that sound right to everyone for a 1983 GS850 GLD ?? They say allow an inch for each banjo fitting. I think the meant ADD not ALLOW??

My measurements from OEM hoses w/ banjos were:

34 1/4" rear hose.
23" front hoses from fitting to calipers
22" From lever to fitting.
 
Call Rob or Jeff & they'll advise but you are close. I went with a two line front setup rather than a 3. Cheaper & supposedly better feel at the lever. Defo an improvement over stock lines.

I installed brake lines from Z1R on my gs850. I contacted Rob from Z1R for the correct way of measuring the lines. They say measure the original rubber hose from the centre of the banjo bolt hole to the centre of the other banjo bolt hole then minus 2 inches. My hoses fit perfect, Ted
