I have an 83 standard and was looking at getting the HEL kit. However my bike has short 2" rise euro sport handlebars. Should I see if they will make mine custom length to fit the bike better as is or just go with standard lines?
I've also read elsewhere here that some 83's are 10x1.25 and some are 10x1.0 coming off the hard lines. Not sure how to tell other than take something off the bike into a hardware store.
I was thinking HEL because they have stainless fittings rather than aluminum, and the kits seem to be 132 shipped, looked like a good deal. If there's a better deal, or better lines I should look at let me know.
If this bike had standard lines with banjo's on all fittings this could be a lot easier and cheaper. Is there an adapter I can buy to just convert the hard lines to banjo bolts on the ends? Then I could just just buy three off the shelf lines.
