Tried searching forum for past pics with no joy, has anyone got the orange or carbon look braided lines on their Repsol? Can you post me pic or if it's in your albums I can take a look
I've seen a few with orange braided lines and they look great imo. Would love to do it myself but I don't want to upset the already over-sensitive ABS system... :/ Also the kits for the ABS blade are different to non-abs iirc and (surprise surprise) more expensive
Yup, standard 2 line front kit is £60 from Hel. The full ABS kit (6 lines) is £180!! http://www.helperformance.com/hel-brake-lines-for-honda-cbr1000-rr-fireblade-abs-2009-2014.html
i bought a pair of orange lines for my replsol...going on this weekend hopefully.. will get some pics up..
i fitted a set of braided lines and Brembo M/C to my mate Danny's SP earlier this year.. he said it definitely made a difference. The ABS bleed went better after I got the right manual witht he correct bleed instructions for a 14 plate lol
Is the ABS bleed process different on a '14 plate onwards compared to '09-12? What's different? You don't have to go into too much detail as it'll all be beyond me anyways Just curious is all...
Further to that, has the sp suffered from the same abs problems as the older blades? I really want to fit the braided lines but jittery over upsetting it now
Yes - I think it does. I seem to remember a couple of people here who bought SP blades and shortly afterwards had ABS issues...
yes just the sequence thats subtly different- but makes a massive difference when trying to see flashing lights in the dash telling yo to move onto the next step!
yes SP that Danny has he has two low sides because of no brakes. Find the thread that I posted when I upgraded his brakes and you'll see we tried putting heat shielding around the front pump thats behind the headers.. no issues since we did all that so far.
