Racing brake lines for Suzuki GSX-R1000 L7
British brake line specialist Venhill Engineering has introduced a race set-up kit for the 6th generation Suzuki GSX-R1000, the new L7.
The kit consists of two braided steel hydraulic lines, running directly from the master cylinder on the handlebars to each of the Suzuki’s Brembo radial-mount monobloc front brake calipers, helping to distribute pressure evenly to each caliper and reduce overheating of fluid.
This set-up also helps eliminate the need for complex cable layouts and ‘T pieces’, where loss of pressure can occur. All Venhill braided brake hoses are built to exceed American DOT and German TUV requirements, and every hose that leaves their UK factory is pressure-tested to 1500psi.
Each Venhill brake line features a DuPont Teflon core, which is resistant to heat, softening, expansion and loss of shape. The liner is also constructed with a consistent internal diameter and a smooth bore, to offer more efficient fluid flow to the calipers and increased braking force. Marine grade stainless steel braid is wrapped around the core to prevent further pressure expansion and damage, and this is then covered with a protective PVC sleeve.
Venhill brake line kits include all the fittings, bolts, connectors and washers required; banjos and bolts are offered in polished stainless or high quality, chrome-plated steel for a durable quality finish. Produced with clear or black PVC sleeves, a range of other colours are available on request.
