No, it came in pieces, the spree.. :lol: ..yeah, I stole a few parts off it for the other 8 sprees I sold earlier this year.

I'd like to get the af16e under it and do it to it at about 55-65mph
72 or 78cc BBk, 24mm OKO, Gears, pipe eventually, I think I got a ruckus variator on the way


@ martynkim, too bad the 6 liter in the heavy chevy cost me almost the same in gas to pick it up.....

Please explain... I figured I needed so many parts for the spree (more than $40 worth) I havent looked at it much but arnt the engine mounts the same? Or is the shock the issue? I can weld/fabricate pretty good but the front mount is still an issue What motor mount would I need for the elite?

The mount is the same for either swap.

It is easier to put the af16e on the spree frame because of the top shock mount issue.

On the elite e, the gas tank gets in the way of where the top shock mount should be.

That is a nice elite e, you should buy a big bore kit and gears for it. :smile:

Or trade it to me for dio/spree stuff. :wink:

check this elite e to dio swap for a cheap/easy way to do it.

How does that motor mount work with the top arm missing? What keeps the mount stiff without that arm with rubber in the frame tube?

Did you have any of the spree parts I needed? I still dont know the gameplan but I cant pass up a complete moped for $40. If I had a complete spree it'd get the dio for sure....

The mount works fine with the top missing.
It can't really move anywhere once it is all in place.

I have all the parts that I had for you before, minus the rear turn signal rack.

wanna trade me this spree stuff for the elite e engine that does not work?
