Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

Here is what you will need to do to check for a bent triple tree. You will have to remove the triple tree and use a straightedge to see if it is bent. I usually measure at least three areas on the stem of the triple tree. Is your headset aligning with front tire? There is a little play on the handl...

So i got my bike running finally and took it for a test drive. The engine is great, super fast, however I noticed that the steering is not aligned properly. I also noticed a wobble in the front wheel. I inspected it and it seems to be bent so I know I need a new wheel. From the research i have done ...

Greetings: You didn't say what your building. The 33mm diameter head pipe is pretty large unless you're running large displacement; it says as much in the item listing. Also, you may find that the "U" for the silencer fouls your bodywork if it's an Elite S or SR. I had a similar pipe, but...

So you are the guy that drove down from Orlando and bought this from under me! The guy said you were offering more than asking price. I almost left work early to try to beat you to it but I was not able to. looks in great shape.

Im trying to save money on my build and it seems that the shape is the same as other exhausts that cost much more. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Performance-Exhaust-fits-Honda-DIO-AF16-motorscooters-/321416281680?hash=item4ad5e73e50:m:mMnAKIbBEvGl2ot097HMXjQ&vxp=mtr Anyone know if these are any good. ...

sa50 elite sr. It looks like some models came with black plastics and some with gray. I was wondering if there is anything that can be done to restore the faded gray plastics. I know they look pretty good when painted over but the stilghetst scratch will show through due to the soft plastic. Just wo...

http://pages.ebay.com/motors/link/?nav=item.view&id=331620476401&alt=web Just wondering if anyone has experience with it. Cheaper than a polini corsa and 8 more cc. What kind size carb would I need. Are the Taiwan bbk any good. I see most people replace the bbk often due to failure anyway. T...

1994 elite SR. The seat has a steel rod that goes into the latch to lock it. It is missing. What is this called? Where can I order it? I was thinking of making my own somehow possibly. -needmoreinfo

Greetings: I test a cable by disconnecting both ends - throttle grip AND carb - and pulling it back and forth. If it snags at all, replace. The '87 Elite was a bit more Petite, so Drifter may have a point. Snaggy throttle action can be caused by a buggered carburetor slide bore. There's a little nu...

Im building up a sa50 94 elite sr and am ordering parts. What would be the best gear ratio to go with. I want to do the corsa 72cc bbk with the mallosi crank. I see a few options for gears though, I was thinking of the 16x42 but wanted to get some input, thanks

I picked up a 94 elite 50sr for cheap but it's beat up pretty bad. You will probably see alot of posts from me in the near future. I have a throttle cable for 87 elite will it work on my 94. I don't think the cable is broken but it sticks and has no springyness back like it's supposed to. Could it b...

Greetings: Never swapped an SA16 into the SE frame, but reading about it, it's a relatively easy swap. My question is how does a Stock engine cost $500? Hope it's low mileage and in good shape. Its not stock it comes with the stroker crank, polini carb, bbk, and the racing exhaust. Thats the only r...

I was just about to sell my 87 elite S because I really want an af16. I found a guy that has an af16 motor and I had the idea to swap it. I checked on here for info and the question may have been answered before but it seems alot fo these threads are spree specific. I just want to know how hard it w...

I got my new 1500 rpm main clutch spring in and was going to install it. I was able to get the bell off using the clutch holder from amazon. I then was trying to figure out how to disassemble it. I found a video of a guy online that had it clamped and together and then unscrewed the large nut. I put...
