I have the later calipers on my early 1800. If you are going to switch out the hardlines anyway it's easy. Go to your local brake line maker with your old one and have them make you a new one. The end that fits in the caliper is not off the shelf but it's available. They will make you a straight one with the correct ends. I keep a few of those odd ends around so if I need a brake line NOW, I can have it made while I wait. The new stuff for hardlines (high nickle copper tubing) is amazing in that you can carefully form it by hand with out danger of kinking it...

If you have further questions, drop me a note off list...


Thanks
