Why would I need a 6-inch extended brake hose kit?

An extended brake hose kit is typically needed when you've modified your motorcycle's front end. This could include taller handlebar risers, different fork tubes, or other suspension changes that move the handlebars further away from the brake master cylinder. The extra length ensures proper routing and prevents strain on the lines.

What does it mean that the kit 'eliminates sponginess'?

Stock brake hoses are often made of rubber, which can expand slightly when the brake lever is squeezed under pressure. This expansion creates a 'spongy' or soft feeling at the lever. The stainless steel braided construction of this Goodridge kit prevents that expansion, leading to a firmer, more direct brake feel.

What is the PTFE inner core?

PTFE, also known as Teflon, is a material with very low friction. The PTFE inner core of the brake hose allows brake fluid to pass through with minimal resistance, contributing to a more responsive braking system.

About this part

Product Details

This Goodridge front brake hose kit is made for 2012-2015 Harley-Davidson FLS, FLSTF, and FLSTN models. It's designed to give you a more solid feel at the brake lever, especially when you're really leaning on the brakes. If your stock rubber lines feel a bit mushy or you're looking for a more direct connection to your braking system, this kit is a good way to go.

The construction here is pretty standard for a good aftermarket brake line. It starts with a low-friction PTFE inner core, which helps keep things smooth. Then, it's wrapped in stainless steel braiding. This braiding is key because it prevents the hose from expanding under pressure, which is what causes that spongy feeling in stock rubber lines. The kit comes with high-quality fittings, and everything is pressure tested to make sure it's ready to go right out of the box. This setup helps ensure your braking is more efficient and reliable.

Installing extended lines like these is often done when you've made other suspension changes, like adding taller risers or changing the fork length. This kit gives you an extra 6 inches to work with, making sure you have enough slack for those modifications.
