Ordered the rear line from Goodridge. Apparently, it is a bespoke line but I don't imagine it will take them long to put together.

They're hard to get a hold of for sure. I called both U.S. offices and each of them gave me the phone number for the other when I called to confirm fitment with the brake light switch. I sent an email to their website for which I have not gotten a response.

For some reason I decided to check their facebook page and messaged them through there. They finally responded and answered my question via messenger.

Yea I called them first. Then was given the phone number to call the North Carolina office. The NC office gave me the CA office number and suggested I talk to Carl but I'm not much for a game of phone tag.

I put stock pads in the back for now because I had little to no pad life left and I needed something stat. They were burnt purple and blue when I took them out.

The rear brake line is finally here. I will be installing it later on today but this is what it looks like.

Nice. They custom built it for you? How much did it cost? I think a lot of earlier bikes like mine could use that set up. I have a hard line to the switch, then soft line to the caliper. I heard the hard line stock setup is obsolete.

They make the line bespoke upon ordering. This is the link to that I ordered and you can pick colors options there.

With tax and shipping I paid £66.23 which equals about 90 dollars. I ordered on the 5th of January and received it today.
