Re: my custom spree

Hi, not sure what type of paint you used but it looks nice. I have found the "protective enamel" holds up much better than standard spray paint on the metal parts

Re: 1984 spree labor of love !!!!!!!!

Re: Carb for a big bore spree

well here's where I'm at, I'm using the 95 jet that came with the kit and it seems to be a pretty ok match. as I have a 65,68,78,85, and the 95. I tried them all I"m sure that 78-95 is the range that most spree's would fall into. As Bear say's "each bike is a bit different" I used thi...

no cost inspection..

oh, get a new air filter. 4 $ at the local honda shop
