Description

This kit is designed to provide the brake lines necessary for a specific rear brake setup, often used in custom or modified Harley-Davidson motorcycles. The “0-degree” specification typically refers to the positioning of the brake line, indicating it’s designed to run in a relatively neutral or upright position, optimizing fitment and performance in various configurations.

Key Features:
Material: The brake lines in this kit are usually made from durable materials such as rubber or braided stainless steel. Stainless steel braided lines offer superior strength, resistance to expansion, and improved braking performance compared to standard rubber lines. These are designed to withstand high pressures and provide consistent braking performance.
Complete Kit: The kit contains all the necessary components for installing the brake lines, including the brake lines themselves, connectors, and any additional hardware required for installation.
OEM Fitment: As an OEM part, the kit is designed to meet Harley-Davidson’s standards, ensuring high quality, durability, and a precise fit. This ensures the brake lines perform optimally in terms of hydraulic pressure transfer and responsiveness.
Performance Enhancement: The kit is intended to improve the responsiveness and consistency of the rear brake system by ensuring that the brake lines maintain hydraulic pressure under varying conditions.

Functionality:
Brake Fluid Transfer: The brake lines in this kit serve to carry brake fluid from the master cylinder to the rear brake caliper. When the rider engages the rear brake lever, hydraulic pressure is transmitted through the brake lines, activating the caliper and applying the brake pads to the rear rotor to slow down or stop the motorcycle.
Improved Brake Feel: The upgraded lines, particularly if using braided stainless steel, reduce line expansion, which means less spongy or inconsistent brake lever feel, resulting in a firmer and more responsive braking experience.
Optimized Positioning: The “0-degree” specification indicates the brake lines are routed in a way that provides optimal positioning for specific models, ensuring that they fit correctly and efficiently in the rear brake system.

Applications:
Harley-Davidson Softail Models: This brake line kit is compatible with certain Softail models, which may require rear brake lines in an upright or neutral positioning.
Harley-Davidson Touring Models: Touring models with rear brake systems that require similar brake line configurations may benefit from this kit.
Custom Harley-Davidson Builds: Custom motorcycles or modified Harley-Davidson bikes that utilize specific brake line routing could use this kit for optimal performance.

Possible Models Compatible with:
Harley-Davidson Softail Models: Certain Softail models that utilize this specific brake line positioning.
Harley-Davidson Touring Models: Models such as Road King, Street Glide, and Electra Glide with rear brake line setups requiring similar routing.
Harley-Davidson Dyna Models: Some Dyna models may also be compatible with this kit, depending on their brake line configuration.
Harley-Davidson Custom Builds: Custom builds and modified motorcycles may also use this kit for enhanced brake system setup and performance.
