If they are the ones used on the GT range of bikes they are smaller than the Kawasaki ones, I asked this question of the manufacturers earlier this year and that’s what they told me.
You could of course have found another option so best get some dimensions, mainly the bolt hole size.

I read somewhere that these have a different spring pressure, but no one seemed sure if they were suitable or not from what I remember.

any spring pressure will be an improvement on my current lines, but having a check valve on each end is not a clever idea, as it would stop flow in both directions..... :wink:

I've re read the thread and it doesn't appear to be a check valve, just a banjo ?

If you click into the eBay listing it is a check valve, but as I pointed out earlier that are smaller than the Kawasaki ones.

Agreed Collyolly, the fact that it doesn't seem rebuildable threw me !
