Tenere front brake lines

[Sean RamsayMember]

Hey guys been awhile,
I noticed my front brake lines are leaking, anyone else replace these with braided line? If so did you go for the “banjo bolt” option?
Thanks guys

Not on a tenere but I have had braided lines on other bikes and they do give better feel. Not sure what you are asking about banjo bolts though, they should just fit up with the original bolts. Maybe replace the washers though.

I probably didn’t describe what I meant about the banjos, the tenere as you probably know has the one line that comes of the master cylinder and then splits into two lines behind the forks, the only real option I could find was a system that uses a double banjo so both lines come straight of the master cylinder, I’ve since ordered and will let you know how it goes if anyone is interested lol,
I re-read TB’s old posts Trailerider and didn’t see any mention of touching the brake lines, probably the only bit he didn’t tweek lol
Cheers guys
