Everything is stock tires and all, Idk how it was possible but i was flying at 40. Possibly the ridiculous power to weight ratio?

Power/weight has more to do with acceleration than top speed.

You were probably going 35 tops. The spree speedometer is not very accurate with a 2.5 tire.
lol idk i still proved bear wrong. :woot: I bet i can break 40 after modding the dio lol

If you have a 40 mph speed, it isn't a Spree.

This is the first spreedometer I have seen that displays 10 20 30 40.

Is this a US spree? what is the VIN?

As in the number on the frame? The engine and the frame are different years

Even if they are the same year, the engine number is different from the VIN. Oh and that is the engine number. The frame number starts with a JH.

Most sprees will not even run without the airbox.

If yours did 40 without it, it would be the first time in spree history. :surprise:[/quote]


Not always true Tjamz I have had several honda sprees that would run like a raped ape with no air box. And yes I have had one up to 38(flat ground) with no air box and GPS verified. Most will run with out the air box you just have to turn in the air/fuel ratio screw in all the way. I do not suggest doing this but when you buy a spree for $20 and can ride it like that for a summer it is well worth the risk.

This is pure BS. The fuel/air screw only effects idle to at most 1/4 throttle. It's effect at WOT is at best 1 to 2% of the fuel being used. What is this a Liar's Moon? Fantasies will not work here.
