My BMW has these and the "feel" is fantastic on the brakes. I see they are available on Triumphs. Anyone have an opinion as to "is it worth it?" tx.

Got 'em on all my Triumphs [well the ones with discs].
Wouldn't go for anything else.

Other Motorcycle: Can't afford two!
Extra Motorcycle: Three would be insane
the front factory hoses on later models like yours are braided already - they are just solid plastic coated rather than having a stainless weave visible.
