Anyone know a good kit to buy to make a rear brake line with pressure switch?

I just used the rear brakeline from my XB12Ss and ~$12 pressure switch on my X1. Fits perfectly, looks great.

Gets rid of the Rube Goldberg stock setup mounted under the oil bag and the thick nasty black rubber lines.

YMMV,

The coarse thread: 10mm x 1.25mm.

Don't confuse w/the fine thread used on Ducati: 10mm x 1.00mm.

Al's got the XB switch, he suggested I change my set-up a couple years ago when I was getting brake lines made.

I had a thread in the Old School section titled "braking woes, not whoas", or something of the sort. I spliced in a new two pin connector from a local electronics shop, since the XB and tubers have different connectors. Maybe something there will be of use to you.

Ok next question i put the mount and nissin caliper on my rear wheel but the mount hits the wheel! Is there a spacer needed? With the brembo mount there was not?
