28xx miles and dying...

Post by seabass1980 »

So lately I picked up 3 more sprees (bringing my total to 4) none of the new ones are in good running order. I haven't started trying to fix them yet, but will keep you all posted as i go....

so the weird part it that all 3 of them (from different parts of the state btw) all have about 2800 miles on them...

Is that a thing? to spree die at 2700-2900?

IDK, but oddly I see a lot of older scoots for sale not running with similar mileage.
Maybe that's the average mileage the usual impulse scooter buyer puts on one before it languishes in the shed for a decade.
I bought my 01 ch80 just a few months ago and have put 2k on it already and thats with downtime waiting on parts!

All four of mine are a mixed bag of millage. I will say the ones with more than 3k miles have all been rebuilt in some way with either a bbk or stock bore.
84 Honda Spree... The plastic at least.
