Disc brake conversion for af16e Elite 94-01

[TinyElvis]

Okay, I've read and read and read even more boards. I've even spoke to a few Pros that have done it.
I still don't have a full grasp of this yet.
Everyone seems to have a different idea.

Many ways to go at this. Let me just run a few I've heard by.

• Use a front end from a DD50 (with modifications to stem...)
  Use a Met tree/stem (with modifications to stem...) and you can use most any NCY kit "type" of front end.
  Use a Honda DIO LX Live setup tree/stem down (with modifications to stem...)

You will have to mod your head set panel so the master cylinder fit.
10" rims only.


*The Ruckus tree/stem doesn't fit without additional parts and still (with modifications to stem...)



What else? Give me some more ideas.

[TinyElvis]

What about the Met tree?? That seems to me the easiest. .. plus lots of options??
Ruck option seems like too many things going on with something so important. ..

[TinyElvis]

Good to know!

So a Ruckus Tree is the least evasive of the setups. AND, gives you probably the most options for rim/fork/brake setups

I'm trying to figure out a combo for the ruckus tree right now. Going to be expensive it's looking.

[TinyElvis]

Yeah, I just dropped some coin today! Got a Ruck tree for a bowl of Pho! Ha!

I love PHO!

I got a HOOK up from a dealer buddy for some decent gear. Ive used RRGS before and it was great. I have also had a complete Frando front end. Sexy stuff.

[TinyElvis]

Soooo, any pictures of the modded stem?
Are you just adding more to the stem? Cutting it lower (?) and/or welding the additional piece to it?

[LMH]

He does a great job!

[TinyElvis]

graphite9, were you able to find any pics of this ?

[LMH]

He probably doesn't want to just post pics of his work. I have a set and I can say for certain it's a great product. If he oks it ill post a pic but I don't want to put his stuff out there with out consent. I'm sure you understand working where you do.

I'm out of town with work but I can take a pic of the insides when I return. I just wanted to be sure you were ok with it.

[TinyElvis]

Awesome! Sorry about pushing for pics. Graphite offered them up, so I was just following up.
Thank you very much for being so forthcoming with your work! Love the scooter community! #

Btw, I don't work there, they're just buddies. I'll probably be doing this myself.

does anyone know the particular dimensions of the dio stems?
i want to put a disk brake setup on a friends SA50 because he ruined his front end (cager blew a stop sign)

there a couple on webike, I'm just wondering if either of them are "plug and play"
