Re: Should I buy it? Honda elite 50

Greetings About the only likely way to discover a faulty oil sensor is to run it out of oil. If the PO let that happen, a carb cleaning won't start it. That said, I'd buy it Knowing the engine's cooked for 350. Well i already bought it, and started another thread " My new Elite SA50p" und...

Re: New Elite SA50p

What kind of speeds should I expect with the new variator, jet and airbox cut? Im at about 33 on flat ground right now. Should I get a 2k or 1500 clutch spring also? What are the benefits

Pulled the rollers and variator out, they all have flat spots. Im guessing there is noone in the US (besides Hawaii) that sells parts for these? Im anxious and want to go faster this week LOL :coolcruise:

Re: New Elite SA50p

Ok thanks. Yes the oil pump works, I wasnt sure at first so I just premixed as well. I read somewhere that if I zip ty it, it will give the motor too much oil at idle? Where do you guys recommend ordering the gears from? I'll get the 9:1's, 78 and 80 jet, and variator all at the same time. My air fi...

Re: New Elite SA50p

I'll be ordering a couple new jets tomorrow along with a variator and rollers. What jet size do you guys reccomend? Which variator and what weight rollers? I am about 500 ft above sea level.

Re: New Elite SA50p

i hit 32-33ish on flat ground, Im assuming the variator is still restricted. I'll pull it apart and find out later. I also need the 78 main jet, currently has the 68 in it. I tried putting the clip all the way down on the needle and it would just bog when I went to take off.

Re: Should I buy it? Honda elite 50

Ok so I talked to the guy, it is in fact the SA50P model.. Whats restricted about them? and can it be modified? I read something about the oil pumps being less efficient, pre-mix would not be a problem for me, Im used to mixing for dirtbikes. Sorry for all of the questions, just want to make sure be...
