1996 R850R brake line replacement/upgrade sources.

Good day,

I now have my recently acquired R850R in the garage and am doing some routine checks and maintenance. Among the items I plan to upgrade are the brake lines. They look find but this is a 25 year old machine and from my reading, preemptively replacing the lines seems prudent.

May I ask for recommendations on braided steel replacement brake line suppliers/sources?

I am also replacing a few of the soft parts -- oil plug 0-rings and steering dampener bushings. Are there other commonly worn components to look for? They cycle has been well maintained has only 20K. I am eager for for the weather here to warm a bit so I can take it out to the hills.

Thank you.
Be well, ride safely.
