Sorry brake pads!!

And another thing was looking into piston seal sets for the brakes, front calipers are £45 off ebay, thought that was steep until my yamaha steeler quoted £125 for genuine yamaha ones gulp.


What is the Yamaha parts website called?

The main one I use is by AJ Sutton and is here http://www.yamahascooterspares.co.uk

I've just bought HEL lines as well - full setup (2 Front + 1 Rear) for £86.99 delivered - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/321070837376?s...1497.l2649

Hel brake lines F&R = £89-99
Goodridge          "      £82-18    saving  £7-81!
Re brake piston seals. Have tried pattern parts, which can be "hit & miss" regards fit -however Yamaha really take the p**s with their prices. Cost me £85-03 just for the F & R master cylinder overhaul kits(Yamaha) & a further £32-47 for Nikone(pattern) seals from Cardiff M/Cs. Can understand Yamaha profiteering from accessories but for basic safety items its scandalous! :eek  So when I have to buy brake parts for the cage it seems like an absolute bargain!

Bugger, did the goodridge ones come with pu sleeving and stainless fittings as standard, as a mate of mine ordered them and had to pay more for the ends and sleeve. That's why I got to HEL ones as at the time, all were included.

risticuss - yes they come with pu sleeving and SS fittings if you choose those options..about £85 for F&R

You can get the Venhill F&R, sleeved and SS for £77 inc. del.

Call me stupid but how do you connect the 2 front lines to the master cylinder?
EDIT: - Looks like you either get a 3 line setup or use a double banjo bolt - good old search.

Yup, double banjo for 2 front lines

My HEL kit arrived this morning, YAY!! Going out to fit them

Awesome  , may look at the venhill then for the front to match the one fitted to the rear before I bought the bike

Also, tell you what, you try EBC sintered in the wet and tell me how that one goes!

Yeah, that's just it, with the ebc's in the wet the bike does go, and go, and go, and, woah that was a bit close!
