Re: SpreeDio official GPS 63.6 MPH stock pipe, stock carb +V

Found that out on South Mountain in ...

Re: fuel petcock rigging question I didn't do this.
Thanks,
I'll try one with an extent handle, like an old vespa would have.
At least I could still run the petcock cover.

Jeez, and people said I was nuts for riding my aero50 around Phoenix.

Re: fuel petcock rigging question I didn't do this.
Sorry, 86 spree.
And it doesn't show on their site as a model in the list.

Re: fuel petcock rigging question I didn't do this.
That could definitely work.
Do you know which petcock from there would fit?
I've heard the old cb motorcycle petcock may fit.
Again, Thanks for the help guys!

Re: fuel petcock rigging question I didn't do this.
No the nut (i guess) that attaches the petcock to the tank.
What should have been on my spree instead of the jbweld I guess would be one way to put it.
So looks like I'm out another $10, but at least I'll be able to use it.
I wish I knew why there were two different size attachment nuts for these.

Re: fuel petcock rigging question I didn't do this.
Anyone have a line on where one could get just the bolt for the petcock? Ordered one from Ebay, and the tank side of the nut is 14mm. I need 16mmx1.5, So...Think I could have it drilled and tapped for the larger size? Or probably a new bolt would be better, because I do not look forward to paying mo...

Re: fuel petcock rigging question I didn't do this.
Okay, so I'm NOT going with the 85 aero, or a 93 elite that are local, but (imo) are too expensive $250-300 And I'd just be buying for the engine, a complete engine and harness couldn't be too much more than that. I'm VERY interested in the "kit+stock carb+ stock pipe = 60mph" setup. like ...

fuel petcock rigging question I didn't do this.
Please tell me that I don't have one of you guys to thank for this... Previous owner jb welded the petcock sans any mechanical attachment to the spout on the tank. I've found a n.o.s. petcock local for $15 so no problem there, I'm just wondering if (I highly doubt it) someone here may have advised h...

Re: help!!! title question
1: yes she's the owner on the title, I checked. And I've never had to have the seller sig notarized before, just started it i guess. 2: She's not asking for 10% I had to buy $60 in gas (I need to get my festiva running again.) to make the two trips, so I consider it a 10% A-hole tax. 3: small claims...

Re: help!!! title question
Nope thats only in michigan. Ohio laws suck ! QFT! Back in AZ i bought an 84 aero50, with a bos and registered it as a moped. Here I pay premium prices for a bike with admittedly low miles, but the aparently original tank of gas in it, aparently..because that was more like stale gas scented jello. ...

I have an 84 aero and my variator looked just like that. In the manual it says to add 15g of lithium based grease to the variator. I soaked mine in carb cleaner, scrubed it out, then just put some grease on my finger and smeared it around the ramps and valleys. Cleaning that wad of gunk out helped t...
