Re: Spree/Dio Clutch swap lookin soooo nice

Definitely slipping when trying to make torque, Cant climb a hill from a stop. Gonna keep it like it is till the MLM pipe shows up, see if that makes a enough of a difference. I had no spree clutch to throw back on at the time and thought i'd try it since i had a spare dio clutch around. Glad i didn...

Re: PICS / my Aero 50 on steroids / SA50 Corsa mini-stroker

Mega nice job!

How is the clearance between the muffler and the body panels though? does it bang? Or is the new shock stiff enough to prevent that?

AF18E Motor build, I want to get it right the first time

So i managed to get my hands on an af18e motor for my 85' Honda Aero 50. Gutted and cleaned it, installed new seals and gaskets with the original crank and now i have to open up my wallet and i am panicking a little bit. This is my first real build, I want to get things right and order the right par...

Re: '85 Aero 50 good as new? (picture heavy)

Uhg, i forget how to post pix on this forum, but i have pix and an update none the less. Drove the Aero all summer, the only problem being the repeated battery deaths and having to carry booster cables in the side pocket just incase.

Re: '85 Aero 50 good as new? (picture heavy)

I appreciate the advice....... But i live on the edge of a Rainforest on a Mountain Range. (Vancouver B.C) I'd have no time to build scooters if I were to try to kill all the insane insect/wildlife around me! plus I did all the tear down outside and don't have a shop soooo, not too worried. Big homi...

Hey all, my name is Kaps and this is my first scooter build/re-build. I got a 1985 Honda Aero 50 for free of craigslist, not running, no keys.
