Thumbs up Stainless F brake lines for 59.95

Goodridge stainless braided front brake line on the bay for 59.95 new in box. I just bought these and haven't taken delivery yet. When I do, I'll report here to confirm quality. $65.75 shipped to my door.

Let us know because I need to get new lines since I put on the Gixxer calipers.

Great! If you don't mind, can you get a length of the lines from tip to tip including the fitting please?

My bike had Goodridges on it when I bought it. I can attest that the brakes are NOT spongy at all. No leaks or other issues. I'm hoping they have enough slack in them to fit the HeliBars that I got..

This post isn't supposed to be a how-to install brake lines, but more specific to these Goodridges. Not my first rodeo w/ lines...

Here's the box:

What else is in the box (BTW all are 14mm):

Check out this guys page. I found I didn't like the way these angled with the anti rotation tab of the master cylinder. So I ground a little off:

And the fit:

Haven't ridden the bike yet, but I'm sure of the results. Like I said, I've done stainless lines before and I'm aware the benefits, just never got around to getting them for the Hawk. $65 and change isn't bad for NIB.

It appears the banjo bolts are cadmium plated carbon steel rather than stainless steel (CRES), correct?

Here is their website for tech info.


BTW, I have HeliBars and these are plenty long.

Thanks for the info! Ordering a set. I was worried about the length in case I go to a higher bar, plus on the Gixxer calipers the hole for the banjo bolt is more than 1" lower than the Hawk.
