Default Black brake lines

Anyone know where I can but some black stainless steel brake lines? Clutch and T/I cables as well for that matter. It's definately time for new brake lines on the King and I am going to upgrade to stainless, but would really really really (did I mention really?) like to find some in black. Thanks for any help.

Goodrich makes them in black. I think they are in J&P.

I had a black stainless braided brake line from Goodrich on my Softail Custom. They looked almost exactly like the stock cables, which was good since it was the only cable I switched out. I think it performed better than the stock cable also. I barely had to pull the brake lever in to get on the brakes.

It's Goodridge. Goodrich makes tires. Goodridge actually offers about a dozen different colors.

He's a Goodridge distributor so he should be able to do anything you want.

Sign me up!!! I was looking at the brake lines on my SG over the weekend and knew they needed replacing. These look perfect for the job.

These guys sell a good looking "Black Pearl" finish. Not so sure those are S/S though. I have their "Sterling" finish cables on my ride and am happy with 'em.
