Re: Need your opinion Should I sell my Spree & buy an Elite

lol ^ yeah. I actually was thinking of this option too. =). It all depends on CNI Dawg, and on how much time (and effort) he'd be willing to invest in having two projects at the same time.

Re: jinagwayne 65-90cc racing exhaust?

thanks for your input Traffijamz, I appreciate it. That's what I figured. My SEF black is loud enough that people tend to look at where that hellish sound is coming from. I had minor fitment issues after swapping out my SEF black for the Honda Goshi. I wish my SEF black was as quiet as the Goshi bu...

Re: soft seize?

It could very well be a soft seize. Did you try to re-start it? Soft seizes will usually restart after a cool down period. Be sure to look for the reason for the soft seize and take care of it. Not much fun to ride and stop. Let cool down. Restart (and repeat from ride and stop). For my particular ...

agreed. my thumbs up indicated not of acceptance of ignoramus insensitive * but of the humourous outlook of the diagram and how true to life it is.

Re: Elite 80 Oil screen

I know they don't, which is why it should be mandatory for a company to have them do maintenance on their own designs. That way perhaps they would actually give a rip.

Re: rattling noise. need help

did you ever find out what the rattling noise is?

I am trying out the same exhaust (Honda Goshi) and I am experiencing a rattle noise now that wasn't there before. I have assumed it to be the small metal guard that is near the front of the exhaust pipe.

jinagwayne 65-90cc racing exhaust?

Has anyone tried this chamber pipe? It is the racing exhaust for 65 to 90cc from Jianwayne. http://www.jiangwayne.com/scooter/parts/image/61.jpeg It would fit my setup right now. I am concerned about the noise level if it's a bit too loud. Honolulu has a noise pollution law and the loud mopeds tend ...

Re: Need your opinion Should I sell my Spree & buy an Elite

^ I agree with eliteguy50, it's like the Razz--built for longevity and not for speed. A friend has one and it's not bad, it does the job intended, getting you from point A to point B inexpensively. He told me that the hot-rod 2-stroke 50s pass him all the time and he's like :*: I'd place it in the C...

Re: Elite 80 Oil screen

I had to double check the directions taken from the manual. and indeed 'remove the engine' was there. :surprise: I agree with the engineers not making it easy for maintenance. I really believe if the engineers would perform some basic maintenance then they'd make different designs but then again... ...

Page 2-3 has the Engine Oil Filter Screen Cleaning. (If you're too lazy like I am sometimes here's the directions) NOTE Clean the oil filter screen whenever the crankcase cover has been removed.
