Hi all!
Right, got my GSXR front end on the bike, bought some nice Goodridge hoses, Supposedly, for the Naked Pointy......thought, well, they should fit......they don't. They're about an inch short of the M/C, and that's stretching them. The bike is still naked, using the OEM bars, M/C set-up. Looking at the box the hoses came in, it says on there, SV650 SK3-SK5 so I'm guessing M&P have balls'd up AGAIN!!! What I'd like to know is, have they messed up, or do the SVN "race" braided lines not fit length-wise due to the USD front end/Caliper mountings!? If they have messed up again, I will NOT be happy! If it's my fault, then, where can I get Goodridge hoses that are long enough or is there another model Suzuki to use? V-Strom etc.... I thank you! |

I got them on the 24th of June after they buggered up the order the first time around.
They seem to be quite useless. I specifically stated Naked, and Black. First time round, they denied this and sent clear lines. Then said there was no rear line listed. Now sent S version lines. Muppets. |

I got custom ones made at no extra cost, direct from Hel. Goodridge also provide this service.

Yes, I've ordered from hel.
So, with the Agro I've had with M&P I'll just stick the S lines on fleabay. Shame, because they are very nice.....but the hel ones im sure will be equally as nice. |
