Re: Gyro - general thread
Thanks, motormike. I appreciate the quick reply. Unfortunately, no luck at motorscooterguide - although I did download the service manual from there a few weeks ago. If you ever happen to have the carb cover off and its convenient to grab a pic, that would be great. I do see the general shape on the...

Re: Gyro - general thread
I hope I'm in the right spot for Gyro "stuff" - long time lurker of this very useful forum... Anyway, I recently bought an 84 Gyro (Spree-style) for my 10 year old. It's in pretty good shape and pretty complete with low miles (18xx), but as with any old Honda, it needed some TLC (bad tires...

Re: 87 Elite SE50 bogging - barely runs
The air screw is at 1 3/4 - what the SM says is the initial setting. I did try adjusting that...not much difference, other than at about 1/2 or 3/4 turn out from closed it starts to run rough - like it's going to kill. Not sure about the needle position - but I will definitely check tonight. Also, w...

87 Elite SE50 bogging - barely runs
I have an 87 SE50 that will start, run, and idle, but when you give it anything more than 1/4 throttle it bogs out and dies (unless you let up on the throttle). This is on the kick stand (not driving it). I've searched the forums and can't find anything that quite matches what I'm seeing. The bike h...
