Brake hoses for the mythical 2003 GS E

Hi Folks, Im planning to change my brake hoses and overhaul my front caliper (its dragging a bit with the new pads).

Goodridge sells a front braided hose for 2003 to 2009 years. My bikes a 2003 E type and I suspct that they are thinking of the F model (Goodridge often gets years wrong and to top it off they never give lengths, that would just make it too easy)
Does anyone know if the later models (2004 onwards) have different brake hoses to 2002 and before? Specifically the front hosem, but the back one too.

I am thinking of buying the fittings and make it myself. They are all screw together and off the shelf from oodridge and  would also be cheaper. Did it for my triumph years ago and was super easy. Would just need to find a way to get that rubber bung that holds the front hose in place with the little clamp.

Cheers

i think the 04's have a slightly longer one due to routing but its not significantly longer.. in anycase its a rubber tube, cut to size.. unless you are going metal tubes
