    Brake Lines 750L

    My 750L has the original brake lines, and my feeling is it is probably well past the time they should be replaced, even though the bike has always been kept inside.

    Can someone give information on aftermarket brake lines the will fit the 750 L. I assume the lines are longer on the L series than they are on the E series as the handle bars are longer.

    Thanks,

      In the maintenance schedule, Suzuki recommends that brake lines be replaced every two years, so your feeling is accurate.

      Anyone that sells aftermarket brake lines can tell you which lines will fit your bike.

        i went to my local independent shop and bought a three piece, clear jacketed, metal braid hose. Spent about $100 though...

          A lot of people go with the braided stainless steel brake lines. You didn't state what year your bike is, but OEM lines are probably available also.

          I went with these guys. http://www.paragonperformance.com/Suzuki%20GS1100.html They have the 79 750L listed, but they're very good to work with on working something up if needed. You can email or call. They're easy to talk to.

          Galfer and Russell performance are a couple of other choices. You can also have them custom made at some shops.

              I have a 450L with the same issue. One suggestion that I was given is to measure the length of the brake line and order the appropriate connectors for my bike.

              Bikebandit.com has a large selection of aftermarket brake lines along with OEM choices.
