I ordered my Galfer lines through MADCO in California.  Bill knows how to get the right kit for the Valkyrie which Galfer no longer assembles, and he is a fellow VRCCer.  The new lines are terrific...

Go to Motorcycle Accessory Design Co at madcorider.com.  I've purchased their products since 2008 and got the Galfer front brake lines last year. 

I have no association with MADCO, other than a client...

Thanks so much, Bob. I haven't heard of this site before. I'll be ordering my brake lines through him. I have an IS and a STD. The STD has Galfer lines. The difference is night and day for feel and responsiveness.

Just ordered a set of front brake lines and a clutch line from MADCO - spoke with Bill who was very helpful and pleasant to chat with.

It seems that replacing the brake lines is pretty straight forward.  Has anyone experience replacing the clutch lines?  Doesn't to be much chatter about this.  Any tips will be most appreciated.
