I have Galfers on the front. They also have a firm positive feel. I would think quality is good on all brands.

  i have galfer's brake lines front, back and clutch lines.  I like them.  had a problem with one of the connectors being scored and they were great with replacement.  better than the OEMs.

Another option is our friend Daryl, at XF6 Customs.  A VRCC club sponsor and one of the best Valk tuners out there.  He sells Speigler Brake Lines on his site.

Speaking of Stainless Braided Brake lines, this is kinda the same subject.

 Does anybody know if anyone makes/sells Braided Stainless Throttle Cables?

 I'm planning on getting a set of the braided stainless brake lines, hoping to have em installed before ridin` season gets here. Probably from the XF6 store.
 I ask about the throttle cable because I recently acquired a braided stainless choke cable that was priced to good to pass up, and in order for the handlebars to look "balanced", I'm gonna need to install a matching throttle cable, if anyone even makes em!

Pic shows 3 lines in the set.  Is that a complete front set? Or front and rear caliper-ends only? Didn't see a seperate rear set or any others on the site.
Thanks,

There are, indeed,  Braided stainless throttle cables available. In fact I believe you can find them on Ebay in just about any color you want. Chiko, next door, has a set on his Valk.

Motion Pro makes choke, throttle, and speedo cables and will custom make + sizes for reasonable cost. I swapped the speedo cable first to see if it closely matched my Galfer brake/clutch lines and it did. Match is VERY close.
