2 or 3 Brake lines ?
Going to change over to SS brake lines .Are all 80-83 GS 1100e lines the same length ? And should I go for two or three lines ? I saw that Galfer makes a dual line set any advantage on either thanksTags: None

The 2 line setup permormance wise is probly a touch better (less places for air to hide) and it looks pretty good(2 line setup is 2 lines one a little shorter than the other,both bolt up to the master cylinder and then go to their respective brake calipers. it simplifies the front end a little.)

Just a note, I used lines for an 01 Bandit 1200 on my 82 GS1100E and they work fine. I couldn't get GS lines without a long wait (from the local dealer), but they had the Bandit lines in 2 days and the price was about 2/3 of the GS lines... Just an alternate choice.

now what I need to know is what does (leading and bottom axle) mean ? would my 81 GS1100e be the same as 82 GS1100 ?
It sure sounds like dual lines are better . thanks

Leading axle means the axle mounts on the front of the lower tubes and bottom mount means it runs directly across the bottom of the front tubes.
