which steel braided lines?
So I'd like to update with Stainless Steel braided lines for front and rear brakes and clutch.
There are different manufacturers so i don't know who to go with:
Spiegler?
Galfer?
I'm sure there's another maker out there as well, but is there any diff. in quality?
Recommendations for a seller?
Thanks.

Ducati Brake Lines by Goodridge
Most of the big names brands are good, I like Goodridge but the ones you mention are good too along with HEL, Fren Tubo etc.

We carry Fren Tubo
and they come in
Steel Braided in various cover colors or naked steel braided
Kevlar lines with alloy fittings
Carbon hoses with Alloy fittings
The stock fittings are made by a very good company called Allegri
They also supply goodridge with the fittings for their kits
We are trying to get Allegri in to the USA as they have really great kits.
Custom made lines with Steel fitting are available through
Spiegler
Hel
and a few other sources.

All the lines mentioned above are good. Just be sure that you are getting lines that will fit your bike. If you have non standard bars, master cylinders or calipers - measure for what you need.
If you need help, contact matt@motowheels.com. He'll get you the right lines or you don't have to pay for them.

i went for the HEL because they do ti ends and banjos except they couldn't supply a ti banjo with a bleader for the clutch slave and although the rear brake line was perfect length the clutch and front duel race lines were a bit long.

Tried HEL for the first time on my 1098S. I like what they had to say about SS vs aluminum fittings. Very impressed with the product I got. I would definitely buy from them again.
