Pre-made lengths of braided hose can be sourced through any bike shop.

Check your rep for a phone number. Same company will do your throttle cables too.

Where is Auto Brake and Clutch? I went to Nelson B&C and they want $80-90 each using old hoses[ends] and have to send them away,so it will be plus-plus no doubt.I would rather send them my self.

It's just an automotive service shop which specialises in brakes and clutches.

They used new fittings (including an unusual one not really used on bikes anymore) and hoses and did them in house, ready the next day for me. They weren't braided items just plain old hose.

Have you tried this place, says they do hose manufacturing on their site

Alert in Auckers will do HEL braided, using your old ones as templates but could make longer of course.
