All Venhill braided brake hoses are built to exceed DOT and TUV requirements, and for further peace of mind, every hose that leaves their UK factory is pressure tested to 1500psi (a normal motorcycle braking system operates at around 25-30psi). In addition, every 30 days random hoses are pressure tested up to 10,000psi; a stress test of Venhill’s own manufacturing quality. Each Venhill brake line features a DuPont® Teflon® core, which is resistant to heat, softening, expansion and loss of shape. The liner is also constructed with a consistent internal diameter and a smooth bore, to offer more efficient fluid flow to the calipers, and increased braking force.
A marine grade stainless steel braid is wrapped around the core, to prevent further pressure expansion and damage, this in turn, is covered with a protective PVC jacket. All Venhill brake line kits include fittings, bolts, connectors and washers required; banjos and bolts are offered in polished stainless or high quality, chrome-plated steel for a quality, durable finish.
Available in Lime Green and Black to complement the Kawasaki’s colour schemes, and many other colours besides, ZX-10R lines retail at £45.73 with chrome fittings and £70.45 in stainless, per kit and including VAT.

New ZX-10R gets brake line upgrades from Venhill

Venhill – specialists in brake lines for more than 40 years – have introduced a race style braided kit for the 2011 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R aimed at riders looking to upgrade their existing set up. The new kit incorporates two braided lines, running directly from the master cylinder on the handlebars to each of the Kawasaki’s radially-mounted calipers, helping to evenly distribute pressure to each caliper and reduce overheating of fluid. This set-up also helps eliminate the need for complex cable layouts and ‘T pieces’, where pressure loss can occur.
