HEL Braided Hoses Discount - JoeRock - 16-07-13

In a (possibly 25%) discount off HEL braided brake hoses and their other parts?

Very good quality hoses, usually about £90 for the set front and rear, stainless lines with importantly, stainless banjos (lot of other places use coating).
I'm a member of another forum which gets a discount off them, will be ringing up tomorrow to order a set of hoses, and thought I'd see if I could negotiate a discount on behalf of this forum too? THere's certainly enough of us to make it worth their while if everyone who wanted hoses went to them!

EDIT: [size=78%]Right guys, rang up HEL and they said that they'd be more than happy to offer a 25% discount for their hoses and all other parts for us, so if anyone wants brake hoses, or any other braking related parts that they do, then give them a ring direct on +44 (0)1392 811 601, let them know that you're a member of the Fazer Owners Club forum, and then order your bits, and you'll get the discount![/size]

YES cos I've been eyeing up eBay for the last month for a full set.

Re: Would people be interested... - Chris - 16-07-13

Ye, I'm interested. I've been thinking about ordering a 2 line set for the front of my fzs600 2002 for a while. Already got a hel line on the back and it's great, really nice quality.

Don't worry its really easy to do Smile

Just need to be patient

I've done this on both my Fazers without trouble and several cars - the easiest was by far my friends Mitsubishi FTO, bled each corner (from an empty system) and bam solid brakes, no need to go back and try to get air bubbles out Big Grin

Re: Would people be interested... - Jamieg285 - 17-07-13

Re: Would people be interested... - EDITED WITH NEW INFO - clayt74 - 18-07-13

A huge big up to you! Well done
Think i might have to treat myself... Wonder what else we could try similar tactics with Big Grin

Re: Would people be interested... - EDITED WITH NEW INFO - DryRob - 18-07-13

It's the setup on the front brake,
2 lines is 2 brake lines direct to caliper from the reservoir
3 lines is a single line out of the reservoir that gets split into 2 before the calipers, this is the original setup

I've got a 2line system, as far as i know it doesn't make a difference

Re: Would people be interested... - EDITED WITH NEW INFO - mickvp - 18-07-13

can the 2 line system be fitted to the OEM reservoir then, or do you need to modify it somehow?

I believe 2 line is supposed by some to be more effective, but I've had both set-ups in the past, and can't say I noticed any difference. Maybe it's more noticeable at extremes, ie racing? However, the 2-line set-up is usually a bit cheaper, as less fittings required.
No modification needed, you're just bypassing the 3-way junction. The supplier will include the correct banjo bolt (longer, 2-hole) and washers when you order the kit.
