I've read a few people saying that braided lines function optimally for longer, but out of the box a brand new OEM set and a brand new braided set are the same.
Which sounds convincing.
So I've always put it in the same box as washable filters. A replacement upgrade rather than an upgrade upgrade.
Triumph do braided cables out the box so I've never had think about it.
