Looking for some brake lines for the 1978 KZ 650 SR.
Is there any good Source out there?
Thanks

You can make your own lines from Earl's parts fairly easily. They are made in the USA, and you can customize based on your bars and desired routing method. My 750 build thread has a tutorial inside showing how easy they are to assemble.

I second Nessism comment. You can't beat Earl's Supply for the highest quality braided steel brake hose and fittings!!! You can make your brake lines the exact length you want.
Over 95% of the race cars in this country are plumbed with Earl's hose and fittings. That should tell you something about their quality!!!
