What & Why?
Does your brake pedal fade while riding? Is your brake pedal always soft and spongy no matter what you do? Do your brakes just not feel the way they used to?
Well look no further, us here at FP Racing have designed an upgrade kit to replace the factory subpar one piece brake line. I know you have probably heard or read online that all you need to do is....just buy a different master cylinder...or buy a big brake kit... or even try a better brake fluid. All of them ideas may help in one way or another, but this kit will drastically improve what you already have. The actual brake components on this machine are not the problem, matter of fact is the factory master cylinder and brake calipers are made by Brembo who is a major manufacturer of high performance braking components.
The problem is the brake lines themselves. We developed and have been running these kits for 2 years now, we have them on both of our race cars and even with the added weight of suspension components, cages and tires with flat prevention in them both cars braking performance is far better than it ever was from the factory.
We have done all of our testing on the factory master cylinder, factory calipers, factory rotors and our 2021 RR still has the factory brake pads on it We have also been using just a standard parts store DOT 4 brake fluid.
All of our brake lines kits we sell here at FP Racing are manufactured in house. The hose we use is a low expansion PTFE brake hose that is reinforced with a 304 stainless steel braid. The smooth bore PTFE core is compatible with DOT 3, 4, 5 (silicone-based) and 5.1 brake fluids. All of our kits are made with low profile fittings and crimps for a sleek streamlined look on your machine. Each hose before sold is tested at 3000 psi to ensure there are no leaks before it is shipped to you. Our hoses we sell here at FP Racing are DOT and NHTSA approved. The FP Racing Brake Line Upgrade kits use a PTFE lined brake hose that is a low expansion SAE J1401 hose that has exceeded all expansion tests set forth. In example the expansion tests performed at 2900 psi have an allowable expansion for low expansion hose of 0.61 cc/ft. Our test sample of our braided hose we use in our kits averaged 0.11 cc/ft with a max of 0.15 cc/ft of the 0.61 cc/ft allowed.
Our kits speak for themselves. Be one of the first to have them on your ride!

About Us
About Us
FP Racing is a family owned and family operated business that strives to stay on the cutting edge to bring our customers a quality product that extremely outperforms what is offered by the OEM.
Us here at FP Racing have been a part of the off-road racing scene since the early 2000's. Recently in the last few years we have made the switch from ATV's to UTV's and immediately noticed where these high-performance machines lack at from the factory.... the BRAKES!!!
Here at FP Racing we have spent the last 2 years developing and testing in some of the most brutal conditions, a product that will restore confidence in your machines braking abilities. We at FP Racing have found a way to incorporate metallic hard brake lines, along with high quality stainless steel braided brake hose into the braking system to replace the very poor functioning stock brake lines setup.
Our brake line upgrade kits are not only better than the OEM lines, but they are also DOT and NHTSA licensed and approved. Each hose is hand cut to length and crimped and tested with our state of the art equipment. Every hose made is tested at 3000PSI to ensure not to leak or deform/expand under the most extreme braking pressures!
FP Racing has finalized the brake line upgrade kits for the 2 seat Can Am X3 64" and 72" and our goal is to have a kit designed for all of the major brands that are in need of better braking than what the factory has been able to supply us with.
If you have a machine that is modified far from stock and the stock lines barely or don't fit at all, drop us a line and we can get you set up with a custom kit with custom lengths. No job is too big, we can also make hydraulic, A/C and Power steering lines too. Let us know if we here at FP Racing can be in service to you in any way!
