Default braided lines for sv1000

had a look at the goodrich website, doesn't look like they do them for the thousand...

rather not use HEL again, as their service was a crock of sh*t last time. First they sent lines for a curvy (sold to dizzee) and then sent correct lines for a pointy with one of the banjo's bent the wrong way - YC did an exceptional bodge... but it shouldn't have to be that way when you're paying for a brand new product which is meant to fit first time... all in all it took 6 weeks for hel to get it right...

so where can I get some braided lines for the sv1000? cheaper non-branded lines which work equally as well will be fine

Once again, be sure to get stainless fittings.

I asked if they wanted them back and they did say yes, but never sent a return envelope or any money for postage, so I sold them to dizzee to make up for the f*ck up...

I have access to all the Goodridge listings in my office, I will check in the morning and post if they have them for the 1000. If not then I can make them for you if you send the standard hoses to me.
