The ncy kit for the elite s is set for that bike. That is the only kit or stem for disc brakes for the elite s. You have buy it from the shops in hawaii.scooter alley was the first to bring it in that I know of. Check the forumshawaii.net site as those shops that sell those frontends don't have a online website to buy from.you can try and call vt cycle to see if they sell it yet.

You won't find it on the ncy website. The frontends were custom made for the elite s for who ever odered them in hawaii. I was told that the owner of scooter alley had them made for them and brought in a bunch of kits. When I get home I will try and post a link of what it looks like on a elite s.

Again the shops that sell the ncy kits for the elite s doesn't have a website. Try going on craigslist for hawaii .there is a guy that posts stuff for his shop and sells that frontend.those frontend kits are new to the scene so not many shops can get them so easy. I try and get some info on where its easier to get.

that nyc kit is roughly about 700/800 or so depends on what shop you get it from and who you know LOL.
It was custom package that was made for scooter alley. came with some nice 9 spoke rpm wheels, billet stem and crown, 220 rotor and caliper, master cylinder. It suppose to be a direct bolt in kit, but there is still a lot of "other " things that need to be done to install it. Like cutting out for clearances for the fork tree. I think also there was something to do with the handle bar set us as well. I never installer a kit like that but have done other elites and its defiantly not for the cheap and the non mechanically inclined to install.

The part you clearance is the plastic piece the forks go through. As for the handle bar I didn't hear any problems about that. I know the hard part is cutting the hole for the master cylinder but that about it.

I did a front disk brake conversion, but it required welding and cutting stuff. :nervous:

The plastic glovebox area had to removed too. :sad:

Front disk brake are not really worth all the trouble unless you need to slow down fast from 60+mph over and over again. :imo:

Mine grabbed super hard too. and tended to wanna lock up the front tire way too easy on less than perfect road conditions.

i decided to not do the conversion... way too expensive for this scooter and out of my skills by now.
Thanks for all the information tho... :bowrofl:

has anyone installed the NCY bolt on kit for the 94-01 elite S?

any problems with the brakes wanting to lock up?

any differences in handling?

any differences in ride height?

also will this kist accept other JDM/dio forks?
