I bought a 400 the other day someone went spray-paint crazy on. they painted the frame, aarms, brakelines, oil tank, and various other things. I was wondering if paint remover would eat through to plastic cover on the brake lines.

Hope it's not stolen, I had a dirt bike stole many years ago and they did the same thing:(

Or maybe the previous owner was just a dork:p

if you put it on a rag and wipe it down you should be fine ,will just dry it out a bit then when all the paint is removed use brake fluid on a rag to recondition the hose.
