Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

mousewheels, can you please point me to the thread where you posted photos of the aero cylinders with gyro cylinders? im trying to find an alternative. A friend has a gyro that needs cylinder, do you have any advice on this matter? I figure some modification will be required, im hoping to modify an ...

HI guys, this scoot runs and rides great once you get it up and running but it never likes to start when cold. kickstart doesnt work so i usually kill the battery trying to start then have to recharge it (you know the drill). only way ive been getting it up and running each time is to spray starting...

sounds like mine....im thinking its in the muffler but hard to say on yours. is the noise loudest near the head or crankcase?

cool thanks. i'm not too bummed, i suppose belt replacement is still doable, but what maintenance requires removal of the drive face? Regardless, the scoot runs and drives great. So im not familiar if kickstart spindle gear and where it engages so could this functionality be repaired? just curious i...

yep.. some people only know how to half * s***. i guess next time i buy a scoot i should inspect better! oh well it was cheap so might as well make the best of it. anybody know what kinds of engine swaps my 87 elite would accept? any newer dio engines mountable?

thanks

didnt want to hijack so started my own thread. I found this part site with the parts I may need http://www.hondapartshouse.com/#/Honda/SE50_A_(87)_MOTOR_SCOOTER%2c_JPN%2c_VIN%23_JH2AF120-HS000001_TO_JH2AF120-HS017850/DRIVE_FACE/SE50-87-JPN-A/2Y14GR1HGR14E0600A can anybody explain what has been done ...

awesome. i'd like to hear how it goes for you. Please report back. I am considering the malossi but not sure if the extra dollars are worth the 2ccs and head!

searh his name and you'll find his thread

This is an 87 SE50 elite which uses the AF05E engine, same as aero. I dont believe a 70cc kit with head exists. Let me know if you know it does

thanks for the tips...

at 89 bucks the VT cycles 63cc kit cant be that bad? I figure this scoot has never been rebuilt and might benefit from a fresh cylinder and it may as well be 63cc. I would like to find a 70 though. I see the malossi on spi-parts? and on ebay but 200 bones is a bit pricey.

If you are filling a 1 gallon tank with premium, it is probable that you are getting about .2 gallons of said premium because the line in the filler hose contains about 0.8 gallons of whatever the last guy filled up on!

kinda funny i have what sounds like the same exact scooter trim as you. black with PINK foot panels. Its for my wife though, she might like the pink. lol

Hello, I just picked up an 87 SE50 in black and pink! its not my first, i once owned an 88SA50 and i currently have an 04 zuma. It runs really good its just rattles a bit and has some cracks here and there in the plastic. So i just have a couple questions Plastics: has anybody attempted a plastic we...
