The cable i have is not an s2 cable.
It might be short if i try run it where the front brake normally goes.
But to be fair it wont go down anyway.
So i shall remove the clamp and grind a bit off.
Dremell.. dremell...whats one of them
Ive got a 9 inch and 4 inch grinder
Am a rough and ready York lad.
I shall use my rotary tool or take it to a bench grinder and try and take off a little bit.
Now that i know what i need to do i shall try and fettle it.
Having never done it before, am just a bit unsure of the best course of action to take.
Thankfully help is always at hand here

A dremel is a rotary tool m8,
If you use the ScootRS braided hose as I did? it’ will fit after a bit of fettling to the headset & clamp as in my pics!
Then Feed the hose into position & bolt the clamp into the headset
then feed hose through the chrome ring & route down the fork tube into the position you choose

The new brake housing is slightly longer, also the hole and angle are slightly smaller/different chamfer.
It wont fully fit onto the handlebars
Am thinking i might be able to dremmel it. Any other suggestions??

Not sure to be honest.Norrie Bodge wrote:Is it an Italian hydraulic handle fitting?
Its what came with the scootrs disc brake. S2 version. The switch does not fit either. Not without some work anyway.
Did scootrs do a version for indian s2 models?
The series 3 one will not even fit on the handle bar.

Mines Italian & fitted no problem.
With yours being a Spanish S2 it maybe slightly diff?
Others may know better on this m8
The switch on mine fitted ok too & it’s only a cheap one with a better anodised cover fitted

Out with my rotary tool and newly bought attachments.
4 hours of carefull grinding, fitting and re grinding finally got it to fit nicely.
Where did you get your ligt switch from?
I have now got mine to fit. Its the original switch. I stripped it a few years ago and rebuilt it.
It still has the original wires so i may swap it for a good new one.

4 hours, there'd be feck all left if I spent 4 hours with a dremmel. Last one I fitted was tight and wouldn't butt right up to the headset but just used a file on perceived high spots and worked it on with grinding paste. Also had to extend the 2 holes for the screws about 1mm.
Was the route from the master cylinder to headset OK? I mocked one up and it was much better with the 20 degree banjo rather than the 90 degree they normally come with.
Was there much spare cable as it's a shorter route than normally used on a S3 headset.
