I can't tell if either of these new additions still have their original brake lines, but if they do......change them NOW (front and rear) before they disintegrate totally and leave you with no braking power. Something stainless from Spiegler or Galfer would work.
Mine Still has the original lines. Stainless replacements are on my short list. They seem to be in good shape for their age, but I'd feel better with new.

ditto on the brake lines
probably will not get the bike on the road this season, as I want to remove the gearbox and check the clutch etc, and the wife and I are off to Europe this July and August so time is short, but I do have my 1977 r100s to ride mean time, bye for now Jimmy

Without putting too fine a point on it, you want to change those line NOW.
They might have an outward appearance of being "in good shape for their age" but its what's inside that counts. And we can guarantee that all is not well in there.

Of course I told him where he could go for a little harassment! He's much younger than I, so he'll be around to dish it out for a long time to win the battle.
You be careful out there.
Cheers!

Dang. I am going to miss BC1100S giving SeabeckS grief about his bike.
Yeah, I just couldn't take it anymore!
The gent with the Pathetic Blue S will just have to find another target.
