Default Magnum Shielding's new "Black Pearl"

well, I had to return them.... I was very disappointed that I had to because the quality is outstanding! ...They make very impressive lines and cables!

I ordered a brake line and clutch cable in the new "Black Pearl"... but there isn't anything black about them, unfortunately.... they're very GRAY

if you stumble across them on Dennis Kirk or Drag Specialties, i'm just letting you know....they're gray

....off to see what I can get from Barnett and Goodridge

Yeah, I found that "Ebony" series from Goodridge, but I'm wondering if the black coating will match the black vinyl of the Barnett clutch cables from Drag?

Motion Pro doesn't have anything for brake or cable for an '07

yeah, i went to the site and looked up the "blackout" series for my bike and all that came up were the idle and throttle cables ....they show a black vinyl clutch cable, but that's it ...nothing for a brake line ....even so, i need to have these +4 for clutch, and +6 for brake

....Perewitz in Bridgewater is going to put something together for me from Russell...he assured me I'd be happy with what they get for me

i think i mis-spoke... my cables are motion pro[clutch/throttle/idle]... but the brakeline and fittings are goodridge ebony series...steel braided..covered in black vinyl

the fittings look anodized [flat black] as well as the business ends of the brake line.

and all of this matches perfectly w/ the ends of the cables...

sorry for any mix-up

also when i got my cables... they had nothing in their "online" catalog...had to bust out the "fatbook" from drag specialties... and bingo! there they were

oh, okay!.... that makes sense then

how does the goodridge ebony covered brake line match up against black vinyl on the clutch cable?...any difference in color or shade?
...i mean, is the "ebony" actually black vinyl?
