Re: 1987 elite SE50P de-restrict

Yes I used the AF16 are you ntalking about the washer between the exhaust pipe and where it attaches to the motor, because that was off and i gained about 8 mph on top end, but i was leaking about 40% exhaust out of the front.

Re: spree motor swap to elite

Well, well, well. Spree is still undergoing changes but i wanted to make an update and see what you guys think. prior to a few days ago, i had the exhaust hooked up without a "gasket" or washer type thing to seal the gap. i felt exhaust coming out of the front under the seat as well as it ...

Re: spree motor swap to elite

Your starving the engine by running it lean. Put a stock filter box back on I dont think the stock spree one will fit now, and I only have half of the stock Elite airbox, no filter and no cover, other filters i see appear to be the same as my K&N. why would this be restricting air, shouldnt it ...

Re: 2000 Honda Elite SA50P

Greetings: Bear misrepresented me. I would never say "Dude! Swap in a Dio!!" to someone who already had one. :) Where did you get the idea that an Elite SA50P was a Spree? The "P" just means the restricted model sold as the Elite S. It's not the much smaller, Spree-derived Elite...

The se 50 mount requires cutting only

the af16 mount requires a cut and a reweld to the stopper

I actually used the AF16 mount and did not have to reweld anything. a few cuts and she bolted right on.

Re: spree motoDFYr swap to elite

Well the k&n sucks so far. Doesnt want to launch with it on no matter whay carb settings i use. Without one it rips so i need a less restricting air filter also a better exhaust with a better seal should help. I upjetted to a 90 today as well

Re: spree motor swap to elite

Re: spree motor swap to elite

Thanks Guys! Finding a se50 mount may be harder than modifying the one i have. Also i plan on using the stock shock, do i need to place that by the cdi as someone posted on your wall? or should i just get a whole new shock?
