Been on the bike for almost 10,000 miles and no issues. Been real happy with the brake line.

About 3k on my Russell brake line and no issues so far! Thinking I'll run one to the rear this winter and run it through the frame to clean things up a bit.

Glad to hear this project has worked out well for you. Your bars are so totally clean. Really love that look.

I too have thought about going with internally-routed throttle and clutch cables and front brake hose. The expense of the internally-routed throttle and clutch cables have kept me from doing it. It wold look really sweet on my big beach bars too, I think.

Man, it looks sweet on your bike! Kudos!!
