    The Indy4x lines look good. Thanks for the info. I was thinking maybe the guy had air in the lines but having never changed the brakes it did not seem likely.

    I have a set of indy lines I'm getting rid of BTW. The red plastic covering is coming off of one of them, but they are otherwise in great shape. I actually had to replace one with a locally made DOT approved line which I personally feel is much higher quality. I can send you some pics if interested. $100 shipped and they're yours.

    I did the R1 rotors, OEM pads, and the stainless steel brake lines. Which one improved the brake pedal, I don't really know. Expect it was the brake lines but it certainly helped. As far as the pulling, I have that too, both left and right, before and after the brake job. Damned if I know why.

    Diving to one side or the other is also a sign of bad shocks.

    Mine pulls pretty good if there's just the slightest rut in the road. Something about the big ole grips make it wanna wander.
