Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

hey everyone, i received an unexpected bonus at my job and am about top go on a spending spree... my goal with my 2001 elite is to make it as quick as possible while keeping it 50cc. are there any exhausts that anyone has tested and liked for the stock af16e motor? i am re-gearing it, so i want all ...

ha, you just gotta convince the girlfriend to let you drag it inside.
i compromised with my girlfriend and now i spread a tarp right in the livingroom...
kickstart is awesome.

living in portland as well, i can say that it has been unusually cold. hasnt gotten above freezing for a week. im glad there are still some of us who are still scootin around... i went to ride my aero because i hadent in about a week and the cold zapped my battery to the point i couldnt start it. (8...

im just shooting from the hip and throwing things out there, but it sounds like a clutch issue to me. like in a car, if you have a shot clutch, getting moving from a dead stop is difficult, but once the clutch finally engages and you get moving your game on. in the case of the scooters, your rpm dic...

when you consider the amount of money to make it go almost 50 mph, that is a great cost/speed ratio. if the seller doesnt budge and sells it for 500, 40 for variator and weights, 50 for gears and that basically 600 dollars for a 50cc that will do 50mph. factor in the low mileage, so the stock bore w...

that scooter is most likely worth the 500 dollar asking price. i paid 500 for mine, and there really arent many elites for sale around here.
and as for the motor it should be a dio. i dont see why it wouldnt be. you should buy it, in the spring deals like that probably wont stick around.

alright, that sounds like the route im going to go,i just want a tiny bit of lift in the rear. that might have to come last on my scooter parts list because that is quite the chunk of change to drop for what its going to do for me.
thanks,Rob

this might be helpful for me too, how do you clean the filter in the tank well? the gas cap hole is pretty small to get any sort of tool in there.

mine had same exact symptoms, as said above clean the carb, alot. that did the trick for me. when you get the carb apart, holding the main carb body, the side that has two brass tubes coming out of it is what you probably need to focus on. take out the main jet (larger tube) using a flathead, carb c...

oh and by the way i am talking about my elite...

Hey, i am plotting out my parts list for after the holidays when i actually have money for my scooter budget. I want to raise the tail end of my scooter maybe about an inch, not much, just to tilt it forward a bit. i like that look. what length shock should i look at or should i get one of the adjus...

with my elite i have been going out and starting it, then waiting about ten minutes till i go out there, then taking it easy for the first mile or so. its 35 degrees right now.

wow, this is making me rethink me selling my spree... but i need the money for my elite now.

awesome, thanks for all the great ideas!
its nice having this elite with all the parts availability compared to my aero.

no, just the stock spring. i was going to switch the spring when i did the gears since i have to take all that stuff out anyways. basicaly i just did the variator because i needed to get around and 37ish wasnt cutting it haha.
