Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

Are yamaha jogs any good its a 50cc also how big are they compared to the spree? The jog is a 97

Greetings:

If one showed up for sale in Deepinnaharta, I'd snap it up quick. Never owned one, but several Forum denizens extol its virtues: Horizontal Minarelli engine is reputed to be faster than Honda's AF series, and mod-for-mod it gets quicker still. Lots of Aftermarket options - maybe more than for Honda. It's about the size of the SA50 Elites, judging from pics, but later-model Yamahas tend to be heavier than Hondas, one possible downside to me.

I suggest you Google Yamaha Jog and see if you can find specs.

jog is good and peppy speed, and reliable running. Parts are everywhere!

Jogs are arguably the fastest (small bore) scooter. Stock - it is the fastest 50cc scooter produced.
Parts are cheap and easy to find!

Great to hear I bought it for $350 from a young kid looking for cash, it runs great and also looks great too.

Wrong, the Aprilia sr50 is faster but the jog was only 2/3 the price tag (I've had both).

True of the newer ones, although a Zuma weighs as much as a Ruckus but they both had a claimed dry weight of 137# for '97 and the jog carries its weight lower so it doesn't feel as heavy.

Im also looking for a set of blinkers and tail light for it some that are not connected to the rear rack. If any knows were a could find these it would be a big help.
Thanks

Hello all,
I have a qustion, can I put a tach/rpm gauge on my 1998 Yamaha Jog? I think it would be kind of neat.

Simplest connection: TinyTach. No light at night.
More features: Trail Tech More Money!
Go forth and be kind of neat.

I found a cheap little round one for around $20. Now my qustion is how would hook this thing up?

Depends on the tach. Most cheap tachs just wrap a wire around the spark plug wire.

Ok thanks guys, Elite guy 50 did you ever get a picture of them blinkers I am intrested in them.
