Spiegler Steel Braided Brake Lines

First improvements to your brake system normally start with changing the rubber brake hoses with steel braided lines. With standard rubber hoses, even on the mighty K1200RS or K1200GT, lever feel is spongy.. undefined. Over time, rubber hoses react to changing weather conditions and exposure to ultra-violet light. The material becomes brittle...an increased number of water molecules enter the braking circle and as a consequence, the boiling point of the brake fluid decreases leading ultimately to a spongy feel that we all have grown to know and deal with.

The patented Spiegler Steel Braided Brake Line System eliminates these variables with a consistently firm lever feel for as long as you own the bike. These German made, maintenance-free lines are made of the finest braided stainless steel, anodized aluminum fittings, and stainless steel pressure sleeves on the outside and durable Teflon on the inside. Unlike every other line on the market, Spiegler's unique patented torsion system enables twist-free adjusting of the line without using pliers and virtually guarantees a proper fit.

Pirates' Lair offers the Spiegler lines as a complete kit (in Silver) which includes all six lines and the crossover manifold for front and 2 rear replacement lines. . Special orders (add $25) are welcome if you would like custom colored fittings (green, red, blue, gold, purple) and/or custom colored lines (black, blue, red). Just specify what color lines and what color fittings in the message box when ordering and we'll send you a paypal bill..

Also... If ordering for an RS with barbacks, if you want your top brake line 2" longer, please let us know at time of ordering. We can provide the longer line at no additional cost.
Note: Expect a 1 week delivery time for special orders.

Warning to 2002+ K1200RS/GT Owners: Pirates Lair does not advise installing ANY steel braided lines on the Evo equipped bikes. Not because they won't help, but because we have heard that ANY modification to the Evo linked brake systems will void the factory warranty. Be forewarned!
