Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

I'm running a continental zippy 90/90/10 for reference. It only rubs on hard hits on the rear. And it barely rubs at that. Not damage to shock or tire that I can see

Sucked it up and purchased and Arrow Exhaust from SSS today. Last big purchase is the Polini Corsa, then the rest is cosmetic! Christmas bonus should be coming soon.. Running bike from Santa would make the year! Spending on this build though has been a little naughty

Instead of just selling my parts bike whole as a donor, I'd figure to put the time into breaking it all up and sell it in pieces. Little more work but it will help financially...hopefully!

Got some go fast goods in today!
Played HÉLL getting that bolt in the silencer clamp lol BUT I GOTEM!
But... I have a problem. Tried fitting on my new clear bowl to my Polini 24mm and WONT FIT Everything looks like its all measures up properly but one thing. The brass nozzle inside...
Notice in the pic below how they compare. The Polini sits at a higher angle and the clear bowl lower. This is causing interference and not able to get it on. I don't want to try and bend it and risk cracking the bowl (it already has some hairline fractures along the side from when i first received it)

Graphie, you ever experience this problem of have someone else? Are you willing to exchange it?

Looks like the cp bowl on the right and the main frame on the left maybe?

Probably, i am just learning the differences in the carb styles... Yes I learned my EVO carb was a CP just today lol. If its not compatible no big deal, was cheap and someone else could probably use it. Filled it up with some fuel to make sure that hairline crack didnt leak and was fine from what i could tell.

The one on the left looks like the cp design though with the line holder hole loop thing. Idk ide ask g9 about it.

Well look at the one on the right. has one too, its just broken off (bought it used)
Pretty positive everything else is exactly the same with the exception of the position of that nozzle. Thanks Jumps!

I would contact g9 before trying to force it, hes a really nice guy and may trade you for anothwr one of stock. Maybe its a bad batch of them.

Ohh yea no doubt, i wouldn't force it haha! I use to do that kinda of stuff back in my early 20s (so she says)

Bowl fits, had to bend the nozzle per G9. Felt like I was going to break it but I use some pliers and managed. So if any of you run into this problem, BEND IT!

f*** yeah dude! Never afraid to get a little kinky.


See what I did there?

OK finally got my welding machine back from my buddy... Sunday i hope to burn this frame up and within a week or 2 i will have the funds to get my BBK and move forward. Just a little update

Im about to order a corsa, what bore are you going after?

Just that 72 that SSS has.

Update: Finally got to lay some beads down and made good progress. My little 110 squirt gun gets the job done (with the exception of cold starts). Just have to hit it with some spray and start wrenching.
