    Hey guys, i recently bought a set of new carlini clean sweeps with 7" rise and 7" pullback for my fatboy, ive gone ahead and bought chrome switchblocks and resevouir and thought i may aswell have braided steel lines to match, my dilemma is which brand to choose as there are a few out there, id like to know what works and what is just plain shit as im after good quality, also if someone could tell me what length to order or if there is a formula to use to work out correct length that would be a great help, cheers

    go to the motion pro web site work out what you need with your bike details than look up the part number
    on flebay you will save heaps that way the prices can be out there from one dealer to the next ,l

    I have "motion pro" s/s braids on one of my bikes, have a clear nylon/plastic finish around them to protect both cable and chrome/paint.
