So I don't mean brake lines, but I mean the little hoses that go from your reservoir to the mastercylinder. Where do I get them?
Here in Holland it seams impossible to find. I called up some local bike shops and nobody could help me out. The only thing they could offer was black resistant hose, for Ducati's... Original stuff.
I'd prefer clear hose so you can see the color of the fluid and make sure there aren't any bubbles in the hose.
I know StunterX offers a brake clamp reservoir kit which includes clear brake hose, but they won't sell that seperately. And I'm not sure if those hoses are actually 100% brake fluid proof. Normally most hoses will start to sweat after a while.
The Dutch Racing Team "Honda Ten Kate" told me they were looking for the same thing but found out there wasn't anything like that. They use either clear hoses that will start to sweat but change them every race, OR they use special brake fluid $250 a gallon
The special brake fluid had a much higher boiling point, didn't attract moisture and lasted ages and ages.. but fuck that, I'm not gonna put that in my old lady 
SO, THE QUESTION REMAINS...
Does anyone have the answer to this problem?? Does it exist? Clear brake fluid resistant hose to match your mastercylinder and 15ml Brembo reservoir?
Where can I get it? I need like, 2 pieces of 12 inch each. Maybe available on a roll somewhere
ps. please don't reply with solutions when you're not 100% sure it's fully brake fluid resistant, thnx
