Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

I have a 1986 Spree NQ50. I use it around the "Pits" at race tracks..
I've had it since new, it has a little over 1200 miles on it.

The noise comes from the area of the kick starter,
sounds like the starter bendix isn't retracting after start up !!
I eliminated that situation by removing it.
It's not a hard knocking engine noise !
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you.

My starter on my old spree used to rattle, take it out

OK, I took the started out..same rattle was there...
Found it was a loose baffle in the muffler.
Replaced the muffler, like new again

Thanks..Ken
