Hi I am working on a 750 J frame with a TL front end and an 1100 back end...
Time has almost come to think about buying all my cables and lines, I wanted to get Venhill lines all over but was wondering if I was going to have any problems with lengths?
I guess I will have to buy individual brake lines and can't go for a kit any advice?
Cheers

Just ring em up, give them the length of the lines u want, and they will make it for u, u dont have to buy a kit. My rear brake hose is over 2metres long, they couldnt beleive the size of it when i ordered it but it was delivered within the week.

That is the cheapest way to do it but its also a pain in the arse to get the banjo's all lined up nicely and not under any stress, I would not recommend this for anything other than an experienced engineer, I know its how we all used to do it back in the day but an off the shelf factory swaged hose is a much safer bet. I stopped fitting and selling this stuff years ago as it is to time consuming in the workshop. RRP for a HEL twin front race setup is £58.99 for most lengths, that includes new banjos bolts and washers, i can do these kits for £47 plus post( about £7.00 to uk mainland)

Cheers guys, I have found them on the bay at a decent price.
If someone with a Slingy1100 gets 5 minutes could they measure their rear line? I don't have one...
Nice one!
I got my tank back today after I sent it to be stripped looks well nice will throw a pick up tomorrow.

Venhill are brilliant and extremely helpful and the beauty of their hoses is the orientation can be set by you whereas most other companies are crimped in a fixed position.
