SinNH Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I can't seem to find many sites selling the front/rear kit for my 00 RT. Galfer has a funky site, nothing listed for by bike. Anyone ever use "cyclebrakes.com" ? Link to comment
szurszewski Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I thought sportbiketrackgear.com had them but I see now they only have spiegler - so I probably remember wrong. Does it have to be Galfer? http://www.sportbiketrackgear.com/spiegler-bmw-r-1100-rt-98-01-abs-ii-front-rear-brake-line-kit-orig-abs-ii/ Link to comment
SinNH Posted December 22, 2016 Author Share Posted December 22, 2016 You know what "they" say, the cheapest thing on a Beemer is the rider. Well the Galfers are quite a bit less expensive, about $175 vs 220. Both made in USA, and on this board and other bike forums both makes seen to work fine, but, I installed Spiegler lines in 2011 on my 09 Strom which is outside around the clock only when on the road, and the fittings are corroding already. Thanks Link to comment

MT Wallet Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 (edited) I used cycle brakes for Galfers without any problem. I talked with Andy Schwartz. That was Sept. 2015 Edited December 23, 2016 by MT Wallet Link to comment
Tri750 Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 (edited) Can't you also call galfer direct ? You can also talk to your local motorcycle shop. One of the common, big suppliers, suppliers, Tucker Rocky handles the Galfer sets for the common BMW's and stocks them in their warehouses. (In clear finish, no custom lengths of course) Edited December 23, 2016 by Tri750 Link to comment
