http://www.onlineparts.com

i only got the front ones and it came to 90 dollars.
i was looking around and this was the best price i found for the galfers.

hell for oem type replacement ones they wanted something like 130 for them. the cheapest i found oem used ones where 80 bucks. so spent a little extra and got alot better.

wow. took it out so a little spin after getting them on.

damn i like them . now the brake lever feels solid. plus looks nice too.
the only thing was there were no instructions and it took forever to figure out which line went where and what direction too. there is only one way it will work for my bike and not hit anything.
