Newbie with a '71 AN600.  My brake hard lines are pretty rough and many fitting nuts are rounded. Is it standard 3/16 line and 10mmx1.0 fittings? Any thoughts on line material? I see zinc steel and copper nickel options.

[2cylinderhondas] Thanks Chuck. I went ahead and ordered those.

Thanks! Since there are two answers on the flare, can anyone else confirm if it is a single or double flare? All my current rear lines look to be single flare. Does it matter?
Thanks,
Jayson

The double flair is the way to go, the single flair tends to crack.

Good choice! And after you learn how to do them, you can put it on your resume that you can do double flair's!
