Great bargain find! NQ50D
Newbie here and first time scooter owner (actually its for my wife). While visiting Orange CA, I browsed Craigslist and found a Spree (white and lt green version) for sale at $75!! Doesnt run but kicks over. Got it for $60!!! Sweet deal! All that was wrong was a broken battery wire (lights, starter, horn circuit), high float level and plugged choke inlet in the bowl. Starts right up! Also, it is in great condition, complete and only 233 miles! Wow! So, I take it apart in 45 minutes into 3 boxes. My cousin there will ship it to my place in Michigan. Perfect scoot for my wife. Now, I'll have to find one to go puttin around with her. Maybe a black out custom Spree or a Ruckus??

Re: Great bargain find! NQ50D
Thanks! I got it running with the help of the board. I'll just clean it up and ride it. No customizing. If I find another cheap one, I'll customize that one.

The lollipop green/shasta white spree is a special edition and of higher value. I am envious.

Re: Great bargain find! NQ50D
Yeah, after reading up on Sprees, I learned it was a special/limited edition. Even the PO knew it. So, I'll have to do a proper restoration to do it justice. It's still in boxes in Cali. I will definitely post progress pics! I can't wait. But I may just do a cleanup so I can ride it. Winter time here in Michigan is the best time to wrench.matzke3 wrote:The lollipop green/shasta white spree is a special edition and of higher value. I am envious.
Thanks, I'll keep you in mind. For sure, I'll need a mirror. Then, the front lollipop decal peeled off. Seat is trashed. For a correct seat, I need the light grey vinyl cover. For now, I got a black seat. Finally, I need a white petcock cover. I may have to shop my usual vintage Honda sources. Anyone know the part number?

Re: Great bargain find! NQ50D
Finally, posting some pics. I got everything back from Cali except for the frame and put her back together. Runs great with no issues. Starts with a quick press of the start button and just idles great!

Re: Great bargain find! NQ50D
It's missing the decal on the front cover and the seat cover is the wrong color. That's the only two incorrect items. No biggie! I can get a decal from the dealer.
