High mileage.

[Dude383]

What are some of the higher mileages you guys have come across on Sprees? Just curious...

[Bear45-70]

Back in the day when the Spree was used as a pit bike I had a couple of 95 mpg tank fulls. Normal was between 70 and 80 mpg.

[cooter69]

Do you mean like how many miles like "10,000 miles" or MPG?

[PimpinSpree]

i think he means miles on the odometer. mine has 3,500. Probably nowhere close to the highest

[Woodencardboard]

My 86 has 6600 all original miles and still runs good. I've head on here of people putting 9000 or more on them if you maintain them well.

[Dude383]

Yeah... I'm talking mileage as in "odometer". I'm getting close to 8,000 and wondering if that is high for a Spree.

Yes, that is high because most people don't bother to keep these running that long or get tired and buy something with a variator.
Rolled an odometer over before, so 10k plus a few hundred before sold and still running.

[Bear45-70]

My Spree has spent a pampered life. Only 3500 on the clock.

[PimpinSpree]

i think 8,000 i ridiculously high, i think most you find will have about 1500 on them

[ae86guy]

mine is at 1152kms not miles got it at 550 motor was stuffed as it had been sitting around for years and not been looked after

[808BMW]

My 87 elite has 827 miles on it currently... after it rolled past 9999 a while ago

Greetings:

SE50_4_ME' got most of us beat. Scroll down to the pic of his odometer Here.

[Dude383]

Wow! 48,000 kilometers. I hope to get that out of my Spree.
Is there anything special I should be doing to mine since it has "higher mileage"?
