Stainless steel brake lines upgrade: Difference between revisions

Line 20:

*[https://www.ninja250.org/agradzki agradzki]: I have HH sintered pads on the rear and I haven't even locked up the rear yet (despite epic braking power) because you can feel the wheel speed in your hand and foot so easily! With the rubber lines there would be NO FEEDBACK until you started fishtailing!

*[https://www.ninja250.org/BrianM BrianM]: In the past when I used SS rear lines, I had to bleed air ''into'' the system to get the rear LESS touchy. Before doing that, I'd encounter situations where I'd lock the tire. Since I use the rear brake quite a bit, having the rear wheel lock up with very little foot movement was a headache and resulted in less smoothness, not more.

*[https://www.ninja250.org/IanJ IanJ]: I installed SS lines both front and rear on my first bike, and liked it, but didn't really notice much difference in rear feel. It was better, but not a lot better. On my second bike, I opted to skip the SS rear line and haven't regretted it.
