Brake Fluid

[andy_k]

My mate was reading summat earlier about a bike that had been worked on, and it had clear brake lines with coloured fluid in them ?? Now he wants to know where he can get clear lines and coloured fluid from !! (why I'll never know) how ever, does anyone know ?

[John Hopkins]

Has he got wanker lights fitted to the tyre caps yet?... :D John

[odie]

I can help you, buy some plastic tube and some cherryade :D

[PILRCGeff]

Never seen that. I would be suspicious that the brakes might not work very well! Coloured fluid might not be a great problem but clear lines with sufficient flex and yet no expansion might be a bit hard.

Yes in shiney blue ........ on a yellow bike ????????
He's been looking at these (http://www.customdynamics.com/step_lights.htm) Its amazing how quickly you can go off people you know :rolleyes:

Oh dear.........

I think preference for chav lighting should be stated on bike licence application..... must be a case for refusing a licence?!

[Grav]

Its definitely a case for complete lack of taste, sense, or even braincells...... :D

Ooh, he is certainly lacking in all three departments :D in fact I don't even think he had a brain to begin with .......... neon lights on a bike (purleasee)

clear brake lines dont exist, they need the reinforing weave, either fabric or braided steel, to resist the forces of the brakes pressure. only clear ones you would get are between reservoirs and master cylinders. coloured fluid is available everywhere,




or you could use ribena!


tell him to matt black it!!

Them lights belong on a full dressed goldwing.
As for the "clear lines on a bike that was being worked on", you sure he didn't mistake the being worked on bit for having the brakes bled and watching for no bubbles on a clear bleed pipe? That would make sense.

eh!! you dont dress a bike , you ride it, so if you equate fun with lots and lots of lights, i bet xmas is your fave time of year, hours and hours of hilarious fun staring at the tree :D :D
each to their own i suppose, most people who saw flares thought they were cool too,

Dont worry it doesnt stay purple long once you use it.

only min lights nessasary on my bike to be legal headlight taillight and speedo

[PILRCGeff]

Mine has indicators I admit but as far as I am concerned, more lights than you need is just more problems with electrikery when it all goes wrong (as it inevitably does).
