    Caliper piston pitting, how bad is too bad?

    Hey your are correct sir , the lines are old and I have two front brake lines thrown together to make it long enough to fit the tall bars. I heard that stainless lines was the way to go? Maybe when I take her apart for a rebuild and quit riding so much? Thanks for the concern.
