Hi,
Z1000J/GPz1100/Z1000R.
Rear brake master cylinder to piston rubber hose (non pressurised). I need to replace mine as I have to disassemble the master cylinder from it to fit new spring. Can't pull it off, and don't want to cut it off as NLA from Kawasaki (part number 43059-1096). Anyone know it's size (bore) and/or an alternative source please?
Cheers

Hi Col,
I managed to get a hose and the outer protective coil only a few years ago. I will measure it tomorrow. If it is no longer available, it could be worth checking if they revised the part no.some times this happens, perhaps because a newer bike has same part? The rear ms set up is very common so. For the same hose, or perhaps get a slightly longer one of a different model. I know I managed to get a hose from either a KLR or a gpz550 and cut to fit the other. I’m sure Phil and Co in ZPower can help also. I will also measure The lengths on the other few models I have. That might showa suitable alternative

I had a look at the bikes I have access to. The 1000and 1100r appear to be about 130mm long. the GPZ1100, 750 turbo and 550 unitracs all appear to be 140mm. I didn't detach any of them but they appear the same diameter. you might not even need to trim the extra 10mm but it shouldn't be an issue if you do.

Thanks for looking Phil, it's much appreciated.
I'll take a look and see if the 550 version is available.....cheers.
