Pay attention Crank Destroyer, he has a spree. Evil, usually when the petcock goes bad it flows fuel all the time. I'm not sure but something could have clogged it up, like rust out of the gas tank for example. Its purpose is to keep fuel from flowing to the carb constantly. Mine has never worked though and i don't have any problems from it.
What exactly are you going to rebuild? If you're replacing the piston, or removing it from the rod even, MAKE SURE you get a new wrist pin clip (the little C clip that holds the wrist pin in the piston). You don't want that coming out while you're running close to 30 (ask me how I know). My suggestion is to take the jug off and have a look at it and the piston before you order any more parts. You may not have to rebuild anything, but I'm going to side with noiseguy and say that you prob. will. You can still order over sized rings and pistons which is another reason why you don't need to order anything yet. Deep scratches in the cylinder will mean that you do, but if you can bore it by 0.5" and it look OK, then all you have to get is the over sized rings and piston (and the C clip!).
Anyways, enough babbling for now, you're doing good by asking lots of questions.

umm, I'm probably going to inspect it first and take photos. I actually ride at 35mph more than i ride at stock speed now but it still stutters and dies. The thing is, when it starts cutting, sparks fly out the pipe and it seems like carbon is coming out.
The entire exhaust note is different when it is at it's "limit" of 25mph. It is deeper and it doesn't accelerate but it'll sound normal and if you get lucky, it'll go all the way to 40mph.

Wow... flaming bits of piston...

GDit, they don't make speed bores for Spree! How about paying attention to what the original poster actually has?
