When is a Crush Washer just a crush Washer ?
Just purchased my new SS brakelines. Now, I'm not cheap, but 2 bucks apiece for crush washers, sounds ridiculous to me. Seems to me like something a hardware store would carry. Enlightenment anyone ?Old age and treachery will beat youth and skill every time1983 GS 750

They are copper.
I have never seen a new one leak.
I will never reuse one.
It is your life, good luck.

To each his own. You do understand the pressures and heat generated while braking and that those foolish engineers intended new washers to be used when reassembling, right?
Go to the damn auto parts place and get a bag of them. Motorcycle shops charge way too much for them.1981 GS650G , all the bike you need

I get mine at autozone...they fetch the divided little flip top box and whalla..maybe 15 cents each last batch i got.MY BIKES..1977 GS 750 B, 1978 GS 1000 C (X2)
1978 GS 1000 E, 1979 GS 1000 S, 1973 Yamaha TX 750, 1977 Kawasaki KZ 650B1, 1975 Honda GL1000 Goldwing, 1983 CB 650SC Nighthawk, 1972 Honda CB 350K4, 74 Honda CB550
NEVER SNEAK UP ON A SLEEPING DOG..NOT EVEN YOUR OWN.
I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.
