Indian Scout and Challenger
Brake Lines and Cables
Upstate New York based brake line and control cable
specialist Magnum Shielding has expanded its
selection of brake lines and clutch cables for Indian
motorcycles. DOT brakes lines are now available for
Scout and Challenger with ABS, along with more
clutch cable options.
In addition to current offerings that cover 2014
through 2020 Indian Chief, Chieftain, Springfield,
Roadmaster and Vintage models, Magnum is
introducing clutch cables and ABS upper brake lines
for the Challenger and upper and lower ABS brake
lines for 2018 to 2020 Scout models.
Magnum routes the upper ABS brake lines for all
Indian bikes from the ABS controller directly to the
master cylinder, and both the upper and lower lines
incorporate the exact CNC bent tube assembly
needed for an OE style fit, giving the installer an easy,
trouble-free installation.
The lines are available in a stock fitment to plus 8
inches over and fit the following models:
Challenger, Scout, Scout 60,
Scout Bobber and
Bobber Twenty.
Scout owners
also have the
choice of
single
Sterling Chromite
challenger upper
brake line
disc non-ABS DOT brake lines.
Premium Magnum Shielding DOT brake lines are
manufactured with inner PTFE tubing braided with
DuPont Kevlar Aramid Fiber reinforcement, a
Signature Magnum over-braid, and a crystal-clear
outer PVC jacket "that offers exceptional protection
against scuffing paint or chrome," says Magnum's
Tom Vierthaler.
"They will never discolor, and our STERLING
CHROMITE II and BLACK PEARL signature braids
match in color and weave with Magnum clutch
cables. Both products feature high quality polished
and plated fittings.
"As a lower price-point alternative to the Premium
Series, XR STAINLESS DOT brake lines incorporate
PTFE inner tubing braided with heavy duty, stainless
steel reinforcement embedded in a tough nylon outer
jacket. Economically priced, XR STAINLESS DOT
brake lines are available in either clear coated
stainless braided line with chrome fittings or black
coated stainless line with a choice of either chrome
or black chrome plated fittings.
"The Premium STERLING CHROMITE II and BLACK
PEARL clutch cables feature matching braid, a
durable clear coating, and are manufactured with
components that equal OE. XR cables are available
with stainless braid or OE style black vinyl with
chrome or black chrome plated fittings. All cables fit
like factory and have the built-in quality Magnum is
known for. All the products we offer for Indian
motorcycles are made in-house at Magnum’s
manufacturing plant."
Magnum Shielding has manufactured matching
braided products for over 37 years, including brake
lines, control cables and ignition wires. Every
Magnum Shielding brake line is pressure-tested and
fully compliant with all DOT FMVSS-106
specifications and is assembled in the USA.
