Default Diamondback Braided Lines

Just had them installed today. Here's what they look like on a 2010 Heritage Softail

They look pretty damn good. I love this compared to the stock black. They go really well with my Nostalgic collection upgrades that I've added to the brake pedal, footboard inserts and shifter pegs.

Ok, it cost me about $500 for the lines and parts. Cost about $350 to install (I don't do my own work, have no time nor desire).

Part Numbers for braided lines...
38851-0
42371-07
42749-07
50051-09
56807-05A

The cost wasn't per inch, it was a total cost for each part.

Magnum Shieldings Sterling Chromite II's are much nicer, will never yellow and are about $350 a set. Imagine that. Why pay an extra $150 for Harley cables that will yellow?
