wow, i just put a set of steel braded brake lines on the quad...and it stop so well now. the lever feel is much more consistent and very responsive, and the front tires will lock up without me needed to think about it. i no longer need to pull the lever all the way in to the grip to get the best braking from the quad. 2 fingers is all it takes. great mod.

braided brake lines go from the master cylinder all the way to the calipers

and tusk lines are good they are the actualy galfer lines!

There are two different styles too. A style like he is running with one line going down and splitting at the frame into two separate lines, and there are also kits that use two separate lines the entire way down.
