Zennco YB125 Perished Brake Lines

Just wanted to post some info about my Zennco YB125 Motard style bike that I have been working on, By the way as far as I can tell the CCM SM125 as it looks exactly the same as my model except for a few small things.

Firstly a warning while getting my bike ready for MOT I noticed really bad cracking and crazing of the front OEM braided brake line clear plastic coating , the oem lines must be pretty poor quality as my bike is only 3 yrs old!, and if lightly scratched with just a fingernail the coating was literally crumbling away exposing the braid.

With these China type bikes you can not get a specific replacement brake lines made to the correct length, luckily I found an online supplier of high quality lines that makes made
to order lengths and the banjo's just spin on to a nut at either end, great idea.

So please do check your brakes lines for this problem, after all the brake is probably the most important part on your bike :thumbsup:
