braided brakelines

[STEALTH52]

Im toying with the idea of fitting a braided brakeline kit to the gixxer to improve it a touch, reckon it's worth it? if so who makes the best ones?
not planning on changing the discs/pads so is it worth it on it's own?

& while im on the subject of asking questions, i need to get a decent tool kit inc torque wrench for bike maintenance etc, can anyone recommend any, pref cheap as well, not going to be doing a massive amount of work with it just the odd chain adjusting & removing wheels etc. normal stuff.

I've always put HEL lines on my bikes and have always been impressed.

I do believe that they are slightly cheaper than Goodridge as well.

Go to Halfords and take a look at their professional kit, good quality.

I put braided hoses on my Gsxr600, made quite a bit of difference, think i used Goodridge ?
I got my Torque wrench from Halfords, cost about £20.00.

Yes Yes Yes

Braided hoses improve feel

Theres no bulging rubber it goes straight to the caliper.

A must i'd say

Get some decent pads to

halfords do pretty good tool sets

Wot he said. Braided lines (make sure you go for double lines up front, not one long line and a link between calipers), plus HH sintered pads will make a HUGE imrovement to your braking potential!
