hey guys i have a brain picker for anyone who knows these bike i want braided lines for my zxr250 but HEL brakes only have a line kit for the zxr400 all i know is that the master cylinder is the same on the zxr250 a,c models and zxr400 l model my other option is just take the lines to a brake place and get them to copy but HEL lines have a good name for themself??? right,,,, and they also will do black fittings with green hose hehe cheers

:lol: Their web site is not very comprehensive
They have been customers of mine for about 6 years so I have been dealing with them for that period of time.
I have had 5 sets made up for various bikes & you have the choice of stainless fittings or aluminium & they have all the gear you would need including copper washers & double banjo bolts for 2 line conversion, they even had the fine thread banjo for the brembo Master Cylinder that I needed as my order from the Canada had the wrong one :?
In most cases I have used the original lines as examples of banjo angles & length & I have never had a problem & they would generally only take 1 day to make them up.
There has never been leaks, sweating or any problems associated with their braided lines & the best thing is flexability compared to shop bought ones if you want to run the lines in a different position etc.
There are plenty of shops that will do braided lines you just have to find them.... I think Rocket industries also do them & they are closer to you at Huntingwood Ph: (02) 8825 1962
My suggestion would be to call around first to make sure the shop has & does what you want...
