Brake line components

[Thunder]

Anyone got ideas of where I can source a splitter like this ?

http://www.vehicle-wiring-products.eu/VWP-onlinestore/home/homepage.php
may do something.

IIRC their website is slow and clunky. You may be better with paper catalogue.

Website is not bad, I'll give them a call tomorrow.

They have a 3 way splitter but don't seem to have the connections used by BMW.

Thanks for the pointer

I've had 10mm x 1mm short, threaded to end, brake nuts (AKA Flare Nuts) from Vehicle Wiring Products - they fit BMW Airheads.

I also managed to get some stainless ones from:

I've had multi-way splitters from Land Rover Spares suppliers such as Paddock Motors and John Craddock - but they don't have the BMW 10mm x 1mm threads.

I suppose you have tried the usual suspects, Motorworks, Motobins, Sherlocks etc. for a secondhand one?

It's not a standard fitting on the bike it's been converted to twin discs so not thought of them.

Will check though.

Any yard that wrecks jap cars will have a couple of hundred or so still bolted to the bulkhead of the semi stripped cars they will let you gave for next to nix.

The one in the photograph had female to female adapters for the lines which you might find a bit harder to find in a wrecking yard.
