Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

The stock af16e belt is 641x15.5x28. Thanks....that's very helpful. My plan is just to cut the Dio case and fab some sort of a spacer out of a block of metal and then weld it all back together. This is a good excuse to finally buy the welder that I've always wanted. With my own welder, I can spend ...

My understanding is that variators are only about 80% efficient at power transfer, so despite the improvement in acceleration it might be better to stick with a single speed setup if you really want to get to high cruising speeds.

For the case extension, I would choose the belt first and figure out how much longer it is and then extend the case exactly that amount so that the belt fits perfectly. I don't think there is that much leverage on the case.....it seems like the rear shock takes most of the impact. It's not like it's...

I'm toying with the idea of swapping a Dio motor into a Ruckus (Ruckio? Diokus?) and I've got a few technical questions about the AF16E motor...mostly having to do with rear wheel clearance. 1) What material is the AF16E case made of? Steel probably? I'll need to cut the drive case and extend it abo...

OMG! I love that bike. As the article says, it's a HOnda SH150i. It's a big thing in Asia. If you riding one of those, you are a baller. I used to ride one of those in Vietnam everywhere. It's a beauty. And it's a fast bike too! In vietnam they have the Honda SHi in 125, 150, and a 300. They probab...

Nice pickup! Gyro's rock!

I'm stoked to see photos....I couldn't find any on google. One of the manual would be cool and others of the scoot itself would be great too.

Aero Sport RR??? That's wild....can you post pics? Until the SE50 (this scooter) the 'Aero' name was used by Honda for all their 2-stroke scooters and the 'Elite' name was for their 4-stroke strokes. This all changed with the SE50 because for whatever reason Honda called it an Elite. My personal the...

This website evidently is written by another Canadian, or someone who is inordinately concerned with Scooter Developments in your country: http://www.motorscooterguide.net/page1/page10/page10.html I'm actually the guy behind this website 8) Putting together this info is confusing stuff. I'd never h...

OMG! I love that bike. As the article says, it's a HOnda SH150i. Aren't we talking about the new 108cc Elite here? http://www.scooterinsight.it/images/lead.jpg I think it's a pretty nice scooter. 108cc of 4-stroke power is going to be great for around town use. It's pretty sharp looking too IMO. Al...

I've had wires come off the ignition coil too....it's a sick feeling when your scooter dies like that because it sounds like something major is wrong. It's a huge relief when you notice that disconnected wire. Once I had a wire come loose but it was brushing against the terminal so it was sorta maki...

Thanks! If you guys have any pictures or info I would love to add it to the site. You could send me a few bullet points of info or you could write an entire paragraph or two and I'd slip it in. I'd also love to get more scooter related articles in the 'Articles' section, so if you write something in...

thanks....I managed to find quite a few european brochure scans for quite a few other 80's Honda's which are really neat material. The Aero 80 page in particular has a ton of them. I've also purchased quite a few brochures off eBay that I'm going to scan in at some point. I'm fixing the kickstarter ...

MotorScooterGuide http://www.motorscooterguide.net/page1/page1.html tries to make sense of all this and succeeds to some degree by defining the engine series bolted up to these various scooter styles. This is actually my website :D I've been working on compiling as much info as I can but obviously ...

they're both 10" rims so the diameter will be the same. the drum brake might be different though and they could have a different interface with the axle. I've heard that you do need the Dio rear wheel but I'm not 100% sure why.
