To be honest, the rubber oil line actually lasted quite a while before giving way. Nearly 10,000 km's aint too bad considering it sits right below the hot housing! It would have lasted longer if they hadn't used any damn clamps which tear away at silicone, like Protomotive suggested.
Anyway, the braided stainless steel line will be much more durable
It's one of those things that you need to suck'n'see.
Agree tho, if the rubber line went bung on a long trip, it'd certainly hurt
JohnC, Mike would have to answer that question for you. All I know is that he spotted them on EBay (a pair of Hybrids) and they were the exact A/R's he was looking for. How he got to those A/R's is beyond me
