i also purchased a triple tree from a ruckus to mount the ncy front with disc brake im getting... i also decided that im gonna get the daytona 8 hole 10"x3" and the 10"x2.75. the place im getting the front is gonna include a daytona hub instead of the zx wheel... as far as the rear goes, im gonna get a gy6 and a rear hub for the wheel...

sorry maybe i'm missing something but what's the point in disc brakes on something so slow?


also what rear hub are you going to use? every hub out there is for gy6, get(ruckus motor), dio, or dd50

I want a scooter that turns heads.. I am a REAL NOOB at this stuff, but have replaced the head of my KA24de engine in my Nissan Silvia S13.. I have access to a welder, and my pap has a fullsize milling machine and 2 lathes in his little garage machine shop(he retired from the navy depot as a machinist). so i have the tooling but little knowledge on the technical stuff engine wise, but i can fabricate almost anything... How about the Ruckus parts swap ability...

As far as I know the Daytona only comes in x4 and x2.75

According to Mousewheels chart here, the brake diameter you would need at least a 95mm rear drum to run a hub to adapt that wheel to your scoot anyways.

In laymans terms, only the engines listed w/95mm drum would be able to even try to adapt that sort of wheel and thats only if the rim isnt too wide and hit the engine case. The 2.75 is a maybe but the 4.00 is probably not gonna work. A 2.15 Dio wheel might be a safer bet
