    Goodridge Braided Brake lines (e-bay)

    Seen some braided brake lines on e-bay by Goodridge (item 130227555404) Anyone used these as they seem to be at a bargain price for the set ?

    Hi,

    Yes I had one of these kits for a 600 Transalp, It came complete with unions and washers and fitted fine.
    I would recommend checking the route of the hose before bolting down and filling with fluid.

    I've bought some too, but they supplied wrong rear line, twice. So I've given up on rear. They are bugdet items but better then original.

    I used him for my cafe racer - almost half the price of other suppliers, but everything fitted and couldnt fault the quality or performance

    I've heard from a few people who had said similar. The only others I've seen are from Touratech but will be £130 for front / read - anyone seen any others or know of suppliers ? The chap on e-bay wanted an extra £10 per hose for stainelss fittings so it raises the cost quite a bit.

    I have ordered a set, as I want braided to test the difference but do not want too much expense.
    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE

    let us know how it goes stumpyfingers . Wold be interested in the quality of the zinc plated fittings as a few mates have mentioned eletro corrosion issues with zinc plating and the stainless hosework.

    Yes, I wondered if they had problems with a paticular model.
