Default Where to get brake line tubing?

I decided that I'm going to custom bend and make my own lines for my jdm MC. Anyone know where I can pick up some brake line tubing at. Also where I can get a flaring tool for the lines. Will Autozone have them?

I got tubing and a flare kit from Auto Zone.

I still have a piece I didnt use, here's the number on the tag: AZJ-340. And the dimentions are on the back. I bought 3/16" X 40".

Ofcourse, this was being used with an old GSR mc, so the part number might not be what you're looking for. Best bet is to take your mc into Auto Zone, and test fit the fittings.

Another good tip.

When bending the lines, bend them around the round handle of a screw driver (or something similar) to prevent kinks.

A flare kit will include a tubing cutter.
