Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

ok I did it. I splurged and bought a pg long, 28 mm OKO, chrome intake, throttle cable, and air filter. I am officially addicted! My scoot hauled before but apparently it still wasn't enough. Who knows what kind of jetting I should start off with now? Is the OKO carb jetted anywhere close to where i...

My great uncle owned a wood picture framing shop for many years and when he passed last summer he left it to us. All the wood working tools available to mankind including the bit set. When we first saw the set we were in disbelief. Couldn't imagine what any bit that tiny could be used for until now....

Thanks for the advice and offer Wheelman. My dad has a nice needle-like bit set that starts at .02 inches and goes up by .001 inch increments, perfect for drilling out jets. Ive got a ~88 size jet in there now and it is running very well. With the less-restricted pipe it almost sounds like my rm 125...

I just put it together this afternoon. It ran fine through about half throttle then sputters and 4 strokes. yay for tuning! now I know what my whole day will consist of tomorrow....

I'll more than likely keep the 9 to 1 unless my route somehow changes and I need to cruise faster. Right now I have everything ready to go I'm just waiting on the parts which should arrive sometime this week. I drilled out an extra jet I had to .938 mm as a starting point. Ill increase the size in a...

9 to 1 is too low? I want it to be quick and on my daily commute all I have are 35 mph roads tops. Think a higher gear is necessary?

Alright.
I guess I'll start at a 90 main and see what happens from there. Spring break is this week and I'm obviously too broke to go anywhere so I get to sit home and mess with my elites. Thanks for the input and I'll keep you updated with how it works.

So a guy I am aquatinted with sold me a corsa cylinder and head a couple days ago with gaskets that he had sitting around for $50. It is used but the wall seems smooth and the head is still pretty mint. I ordered the piston and rings etc from daywot and had the cylinder honed yesterday. I have a 98 ...

E.L. people unite. I have an elite as well. its been completely apart more than twice now and i am always doing stuff to it. let me know if you want to work on yours sometime. Its almost warm enough to ride now so i think ill have mine back up here after sb. are you a student at msu?

Stopping by my dads garage later today. will pick up a gauge and see what the compression is. i spent a day last week tinkering with the carburetor after i cleaned it out. I couldnt get any symptoms to go away. I have a feeling that the rings need to be replaced, in which case ill do the piston as w...

No leak to speak of. I cleaned the air filter a little after I bought it ~2 months ago and everything looked and was great. I just went and double checked but I cant seem to find anything. unless Im not looking in the right place. any known troublesome areas?

I have a 98 Honda Elite sa50. I bought it early in the summer and have been riding it without problems thus far. Since i have had it, it has always had smoky exhaust. It came with a full tank of gas and full reservoir of oil. As i went through tank of gas after tank of gas, the oil light never came ...
