Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

10:1 gears are limited still. I use 9:1(16*42)with stock bore for about 47 mph I’m guessing. Your 72cc should push way past 50. It could be the ncy contra spring has not broke-in yet plus your 10:1 gears. Perhaps you’re running rich also?

I am currently using a product called plastex.yuo can make a mold of the tabs, then reproduce hem where they are missing

Any progress on this repair technique??

I think I found one. 😉 I was hoping 15-20 more people here would have jumped up and said “yea! we want them too!!” You brought back the malossi cranks, the arrow pipes and tons of parts for all kinds of other scooters as well. Plus all your one-off custom parts and making available super hard-to-fin...

Right now at this point it doesn’t matter the engine is not stock

The placement of the pulse coil is different on the two so I suppose you will find out soon enough?

af18 fan cover is different from af16. which do you need?

Need more NCY stems for Elite. I can't believe you sold them all!!! Thanks for bring'in all the great stuff back to life again Brandon. You are the man! (for parts)

Bumpity bumpStill looking for one

Yes it's one thing on the list when getting a new-to-you scooter that's not running. Well, don't run it without an exhaust! It can cause serious damage to your piston and cylinder! You could carefully try pouring small amount drain-o to get it loosened up then use coat hanger and wear protective eye...

Ok then I assume you scraped those intake surfaces absolutely clean and applied sealer and all new intake gaskets?
If there’s any air leaking into the motor then it’s not going to start.

Updates! I pulled the flywheel, all looks well back there. Cleaned it up, and put if back together. After all of this, we I kicked it hard, and it tried to start! More blurbing, then nothing. This was with the throttle significantly opened. Couldn’t get it to do it again. No starter fluid improveme...

So i fixed the throttle slide it was 180. Now it doesnt idle high but it still wont turn on unless i put my hand over the carb. Once it starts i can take off my hand and it will ride until i shut it off

Do you mean you can ride it? or do you mean it will just run while on the stand?

Then there’s something to do with the workings of the carburetor. Is it the original oem or an eBay carb?

Yea you should have the air box all connected and an oiled, oem quality air filter in place for the scooter to start on it’s own no hand-holding

Throttle slide may be stuck in open position.
You may have installed it in the carburetor out of alignment with the nub.

Oh nice! I like the color. I like the custom disc brake reservoir cutout. I like the anti-theft device.
