New front lines on the way. Then I can install blue dots and new m/c. Can't wait.

You are gonna love the solid feel, I stayed with a 5/8 master and still got a huge improvement in feel. My brake lever is now twice as long as it needs to be. Two fingers will bring me to stop under any braking condition now.
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

I all ready have a new m/c from a fazer but it does not match the clutch m/c so I may use stock m/c. Lines should be here Thursday. I friend gave me a fork brace years ago. Installed that last Thursday the reason it took so long to install, couldn't remember where I put it. Rear brake lines then suspension next.  :good:
