Thank Walter. Dry building and spending lots of money starts now.

Started on the stainless brake lines, the red brackets and bolts will be replaced by black ones.

That alu (billet) handbrake lever is totally dope!

Thanks, but it's just a cheap(ish) hydraulic handbrake and mounted the 7 stage bias to it.

Did some more plumbing.

New flexible line secured with anodised clamp and bolt.



More bends in the stainless hardline.

Hey Paul,

I'm really impressed by the quality of your build!
Where did you buy the red brackets for the brake line? A set of them would be nice for my project.

Regards,
Tobi

Very tidy, the stainless hardline looks great.

Thanks, I love the looks of this hardline, but it's a PITA to flare. looks so much better as the copper or steel lines.

Thanks Paul!

Not much of an update but there is some progress.

Finished the rear brakelines.
Checked the gearbox, cleaned it, relocated the breather, used new seals and gaskets and gave it some paint.
