either one of them is better than stock, it is an effective upgrade to make.

I would say steel only because I don't know anything about kevlar, but steel is tried and true.

Pick one. they are gonna be about the same. The lines are only a minor part of the equation for these bikes.
The lines are going to improve feel and decrease brake fade. The major weakness in these bikes is the calipers. The dual piston calipers are quite a bit weaker than the later 4 pot calipers.

If you have either type of line now and want to get better feel or performance look at replacing the master with a radial type and possibly upgrading the calipers and rotors to a later model or Brembo if you really wanna spend the cash.
