Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

Have not seen much on what chancing the gear oil or what is the recommended type for the Spree.

I checked mine (recently purchased Spree 85) this past weekend and it looked like foggy green pea soup. Only about 60CC's came out.

Refilled with 90CC's of the stuff I use in my TGB.

OK... I see. Mine came with the filter bone dry. I have since soaked it in 30 weight oil and replaced it.

Does the oil do anything other than attract dirt? Does it affect the operation in some other way.... the oil fumes I mean?

Well, I'd probably here it there. Makes sense to be up front. I can probably wire up something to do the trick. Just a small beeper across the indicator lamp on the panel should work.

Can someone explain to me why air box and filter are so critical to the operation of the Spree? Why is it important the box be tightly closed so air only comes in the port at the back? Why does the foam filter have to be soaked in motor oil to work. Why, if the hose comes off the air box, will the e...

I now know why I cannot hear the flasher even though it is clicking. The darn thing is in the back under the seat... near the motor or all places.

Thank you!

Is there a correct way for this to be installed? Mine is facing forward but the one in the picture of the Elite is facing backward.

If anyone has a spare one of these for the Elite, please PM me as I'd like to buy it.

Does anyone know if I can update my Spree kickstart... the exterior foot lever that clamps onto the shaft... to the version for the Elite as seen in this photo? That is, is the shaft diameter the same for both? Are there any 3rd party kick starts you can recommend? Thanks. http://i302.photobucket.co...

I found this Husky charger at a garage sale about two years ago for $15. It is the best charger I've ever owned. Charges everything from my car battery, to my riding lawn mower to my two scooter batteries. Will never overcharge and tells you what the condition of the battery is. http://www.homedepot...

What can I tell you. My scooter starts faster and runs smoother and with better pickup.

I don't own stock in NGK. Do what you want.

Ooops!

Maybe I should have check this before I posted. Sorry if this is bad information on may part.

I fixed my fuel gauge this weekend. Remove the seat, the rear luggage rack and the two side panels to get to the motor area. The fuel gauge sender unit that tells the gauge how much gas is in the tank is located behind the fill port on top of the tank. There are two wire connectors about 10" do...

Walmart stocks the battery for the Spree.

BTW: You can get an additive from J.C. Whitney (www.jcwhitney.com) to desulfate your existing battery.

A couple of points on the Iridium plugs. 1) You will not be replacing them often. They do not wear out like normal plugs so in the long run paying $7.00 for one vs $2.00 every few months makes sense $ wise. 2) They do not work by burning hotter, they work by firing exactly the same every time and wi...

I received a quote of $63 from an online decal company to make up two of the above Spree decals 10" wide in two colors.

Does anyone know someone who can do any better price wise or is this about the going rate for custom work.

Thanks.
