Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

Greetings: Abreen, the reason this discussion came to include AF16 "Dio" engines is that the variator units actually do interchange. Your 05 engine has a 10mm crank diameter while the "Dio" is 12mm. The ID of the Variator casting - the outer, Al-You-Minnie-Yum bit - is the same....

you wont run into problems with the kelli. you'll run into problems withe the aero variator. see abreen, i told you. nobody gets it this transmission isnt a dio transmission. its an aero transmission. yea i am confused why everyone keeps talking about dios and zx transmissions i could give 2 squirt...

Will i need to get different weights? the stock rollers are in awesome shape but not sure if i will need heavier or lighter weights.

Greetings: Quoth Strapline: a stock elite variator can't be used in a zx transmission. if you change. I disagree. The Stock variator won't give full-range gear reduction or "overdrive" but it can be used as long as the ZX belt and pulley boss are retained. Then again, you can always slide...

Greetings: A Keli was the very first mod I made on Flash Scootertrash, a resurrected 1987 Aero. It did indeed improve speed, a little, but not sure about 5MPH on top. Midrange for sure was smoother and better. It really came alive using a Malossi ramp plate with the steeper angle. SEF makes a simil...

i'm about 90% sure now that it's the carb. there seems to be no fuel getting into the carb. i may have a jetted, functioning, cleaned, 100% tested and running carb from another '83 aero 50 on the way!!! if you remove the fuel lines does fuel come out when you apply vacume to the suction line? may b...

Anyone use this variator in you aero? do you see a 5mph increase in speed like it says? http://www.ebay.com/itm/VARIATOR-PULLEY ... 21&vxp=mtr

Greetings: The Ruck stock vario is about 5mm bigger than the AF variators- about 92 vs 87.5mm. It may be necessary to shave the crankcase about the starter housing to make room for it . The payoff is a little taller overdrive gearing that can translate, if your engine makes enough power, to a few M...

Any 16x13 rollers or sliders will fit in the nb50 variator. and they do make sliders for that equivalent size as well ( ive only heard bad reviews however what makes you want them?) total rukus forum has tons. those guys all upgrade variators and have old ones lying around. so i dont need a perform...

they make ones that do fit the stock variator/aftermarket variators. but what variator are you using? if its the stock one that might be the problem, get a honda ruckus variator. cheap with drastic improvement which ruckus variators are you talking about all the ones i am finding are pretty exspens...

I am searching for some cheap and easy ways to get a few more mph out of my 86' aero 50. I was told that the Dr. Pulley sliders are the way to go. Anyone ever use them on their aero's? Do they fit the stock variator ive been searching google all night and have yet to find anything that says it fits ...

Im running an electronic solid state relay on my spree works great and will run leds too. I have a beeper relay on the way so i dont leave the signals on. My aero 80 has me spoiled with the relay in the dash ;-) Sent from my LG-C800G using Tapatalk 2 i too run electronic relays after bear recommend...

Alright I checked the power from the battery to the frame and there was a ground issue. The ground behind the rectifier hasd come lose!!!! d*** thing I cleaned up the connection put it back together with the propper fuse (7 amp) and She is back up and running! Thanks for the trouble shooting help gu...

If you had the engine totally off of the frame then recheck all the ground connections and plug connectors. I'm pretty sure you have already done this but sometimes we just assume we have done everything correctly. If it worked right before it will probably be something super simple. yea it was wor...
