Re: Dio disc brake front on Elite frame
Thank you swim, 1m8s, ripcity, MS305, and ped! By the way, you guys have some nice builds going on as well!!! I think eventually I will do another one but I want to use the Daelim Cordi legs and disc set up. Much easier to get, and much cheaper too!!!

Re: Dio disc brake front on Elite frame
Yes you are correct but for folks here on the mainland we need to be creative and make our own mods to work with what we gots. It's very hard to look for those parts here sir.veedubh20 wrote:honda sb50 with g stem is bolt on , no problem and no mod required..

Re: Dio disc brake front on Elite frame
Thanks Patrick! Those mirrors came from a local scooter shop. There was no packaging and he said he got them very cheap on ebay. Must be from china?lol.....They vibrate a lot when under way so I would recommend staying away from them. Constantly loosening, shaking, and small window of vision makes me want to toss them away. But, yes, they look Kool!S4Patrick wrote:NICE WORK!

Re: Dio disc brake front on Elite frame
Well, it has been a while since this thread had an update so here is what's been done.......
I found a 200mm floating rotor and adapter kit to fit on my oem honda dio forks/wheel (10mm axle) and uses the same oem caliper. I did have to do some slight grinding for clearance here and there but it basically bolts up with no problems. Surprisingly, it was made in China, but I had also purchased another similar kit made in Taiwan and it has issues and does not fit correctly.
So far the product I have installed performs better than the oem honda dio 160mm rotor set up. IMO It now has better stopping power and there are no issues if it is correctly installed. If anyone wants to buy one of these 200mm kits for dio disc, please pm me for details. Bones

Re: Dio disc brake front on Elite frame
Yes, I have seen this done. It is not so for the sa50 elite. The sa50 elite must be modified to accept these stems. In reference, the G stem is same size as a metropolitan stem, and a dio zx stem, in terms of stem length and width of fork spacing but I believe you could use wheels up to 3" wide with any of these stems. I have also seen the G stem used without mods on an se50. Here is a pic of a "G" stem from a Dio G-Dash. And some pics of a Dio G Dashveedubh20 wrote:honda sb50 with g stem is bolt on , no problem and no mod required..

Re: Dio disc brake front on Elite frame
I think those are koso morrors, they look like a pair I have. Mine also look cool while moving around constantly and being hard to see out of haha. Nice bike bones
Re: Dio disc brake front on Elite frame
Lol.....naw, the Koso's don't do that. These cheap knock-off's do tho. But they're the only mirrors I have for this. I have not seen any that I would spend money for so this is it. I'm used to them now.
And thanks Benji.
@Jumps, there's got to be 20 or 30 places to rent scooters down here. This is a friend of mines' place that I stop by from time to time. As you can see in the pic he's closed for the day, and that's always a good time to crash a party!
