Glad you just said that
I'm fitting Renthals to my StormFighter and have the brake lines sorted but I'm struggling with the clutch hose.
Have you fitted a braided clutch hose?
If so, where did you get it from and can you remember how long yours was?
Cheers fella

Why don't you just get a length of string and run it along the brake hose, then measure it to see how long it is?

Obviously I can do that but I still don't know who would make up a special

Thanks Timbo, great stuff!
I've contacted the ebay seller.

The rest of us were out on the twisty roads, them straight ones are too flat and boring.

If you're down this way again, I'm near J3 M25, could meet up or stay over, even, if that's any help?
(It's only an hour more to where you're heading, though).

20 mins away from Brands Hatch, so there's a track day possibility, too.

Good to hear your dad's ok.
