Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

I just paid $175 for one but it needs a new left panel, rack and rear turnsignals, and rear tire. Hat about 2300 miles too. This was in PA. Oh really? so where you live than? lol i paid nothing for mine. got about a hundred bucks into parts it needed. also got title and currently have it licensed r...

Soooooo....why the tube on the spree wheels guys? rim looks to me like it'd withstand air pressure. Aint a split rim, so it wouldnt leak. i was just curious why they use tubes. i almost just put a tubeless stem in and a tubeless tire but decided i'd better not do it till i asked yinz.

yah the putt your talking about is what i call "4 stroking" when it comes to saws. Without a load, at wide open, a saw should do that..thats how ya know its tuned right. If it dont, its prolly to lean! Now as far as why the spree does that..not sure to be honest. like stated earlier, clean...

Here try tuning this Sweeeet motor...* is it. lol At first glance i thought it was a MG motor, then realized that those got intakes that come in on the side. thems look to be directly down in or something...BMW motor maybe? what what what is it bear! lol Numreous carbs just make things look tricky...

wait a min..ran over the dood who was staarting it?..ok first off..that SUCKS! lol..big thanks alot for gettin it runnin...ran his * over! lol and second...* :*: ....shouldnt ya be inside the cab to start it?..lol

didnt get to check belt tonight, been busy workin on my womans camry..* oil leak. Replaced every seal on the face of the motor to find out it was the oil pump o ring itself. :blah: FUUUUDDDDGGGGEEEEE!!!! :blah: so i tore it apart and replaced it. tomorrow ill get it back together, and down off the *...

Ok so heres a thought..could be wrong, usualy am, lol Runs good when its cold...means bystarter is working, but once it warms up..it likes to die at an idle or when you freewheel to a stop. Maybe try Runnin in the idle screw? Just a pinch. Its the Screw with the spring on it. Now, yes..this will inc...

Imma try the belt first...then..ill move onto washers.. i got access to just about every kinda machining equipment imaginable. If it comes down to it..ill surface grind to the thickness i want! lol Ill let ya know about the belt thing..

Plankton tell me more about the washer thing.

Ditto..whats up with the washer?

ill start with a belt i imagine,seeing as its cheaper than shoes springs and bushings.

yah i got the manual before i even made an account. lol :-D i'm gettin 30 just as i did before i swapped tires. also, i did notice belt is worn alot so thats why i'm thinkin its the belt. i got a spare set of calipers at work that imma bring home to measure belt and clutch shoes. So what your sayin ...

Well, since i legalized the scoot, i been ridin it round. check out what it'll do...Deff not the speed limit, thats for sure. lol Doesnt like hills either, tends to die on em, gota use flinstone power on some. Think its from my belt or the clutch shoes just beat? i know the belt is beat! i gota go t...

yah but i dont think it'll work marty, its not for single cylinder..

unless you know something i dont. lol

maybe a very very small amt of vasoline on o ring to help ease the installation..just a light film..might help. just done cake it on there or your due for more problems. i think my bystarter is shot. If its to cold, i gotta reach up under and plug one hole to start it sometimes. leave it run for a f...

TADAH!!! Excellent idea!

Yah i'm sure the second ones would work fine. When ya get em, make sure they clear all the stuff (speedo cable, brake cable, muffler, etc) that'd be the only thing i could see it causing a problem with.
