Brake pipe

#1 PostAuthor: Pinhead » Sun Feb 08, 2015 4:28 pm

Hi
Where can I get the metal brake pipes that go
From the caliper to the rubber brake line
Just tried one which must be for a 1975 the threaded area is to short
I have a a4 1976 I think the calipers are different on this model

Looks like the calipers are from a z1000 ltd and not a A4 z900
I'm going to use the calipers till I can get some a4 ones
So I will have to use hel brake lines
Does anyone have any pictures of z900 with hel lines on
