Re: N4S Motorwerx "Spree Rebuild" Smile no goin broke your face!
Tru72 is in Hawaii. Those guys get all sorts of crazy things nobody can find. Last I heard he’s still building motors but I dont think he’s been on this forum for a long time.

Re: No spark, no go
4L-BS is the correct battery. Cheap $20 ebay deal. Any ah will work.

Re: No spark, no go
Mousewheels is the resident wizard on wiring gremlins. He knows the schematics so well you’d think he wrote it. If the PO cut and spliced some stuff, good luck with that. Figuring out what he did and how to undo it is something I dont have patience for. If it were mine, Id strip it to the frame, buy...

Re: No spark, no go
Many things could give a “no spark” situation. Since the wiring is already in question, thats a place to start looking. Does the rear taillight illuminate when the key is switched to ON? It needs to be. Is the button set to “Run” on the switch near the throttle grip? Its possible the CDI is bad and ...

Re: 1984 nq50 honda spree cranks but doesnt start
so when I was trying to diagnose the issue, I put the pulley back together on the crankshaft If youre trying to see if the crank seals popped out, why would you put the pulley back on? And why would you take the pulley off and try to start it? Starter gear (bendix) is held in place by the belt cove...

Re: 1984 nq50 honda spree cranks but doesnt start
Post a pic of the spacer thing. You’ll need to resize the pic to post it due to file size restrictions. Your issue could very well be a popped crank seal. Ive had it happen before and the result is the same symptoms you have. https://www.partzilla.com/product/honda/91201-GK8-003?ref=aa9b969dc2b2181b...

Re: 1984 nq50 honda spree cranks but doesnt start
If the battery is weak and wont spin the motor fast enough to get going, you can hook up jumper cables to a car battery to give it all the push it needs. Just do NOT have the car running while you do this. A running car will provide 14.4v and your Spree can only handle 12v….keep the car OFF. Buy a c...

Re: Pg long flip cone?
Cut it open, the internal cone baffle can be flipped to increase flow (and noise) and then weld it back together. Its a poor man’s mod that very slightly increases performance. Hardly worth the effort in my opinion.

Is it SE50 or SE50p? Look on the VIN sticker on the frame tube under the floor deck.

Re: AF05 wiring help
What did they go to on the Spree motor? Green is ground and can be bolted anywhere.
Ive done this swap. Good luck getting the airbox to fit under the Spree panels.

Re: 2001 Honda Elite Newbs 1st Scooter
1/2 throttle at 306 doesnt indicate a need for a jet change. How does it react when you blip the throttle 0-3/4? If it sounds muddy, rich. If the rpm’s hang before returning to idle, lean. Try the mixture screw before swapping jets. Once youre happy with the throttle response, take it for a rip and ...

Re: See-through float bowls?
If you buy a new carb for $20, it probably only costs $10 to make it. How good do you think it will be?
There are a few things where its ok to cheap out on. A carburetor is not one of them.

Re: Fuel petcock with "reserve"
The ebay ones are a crapshoot. Different years Spree’s have different thread pitch on the tank bung. The ebay sellers are 75% inaccurate on fitment. I say this because I had to buy 4 different petcocks from 4 different sellers before I got one with the correct threads. I made the rookie mistake of t...
