Re: help! 87 spree

Just because a speedometer says something doesn't make it true . My 2010 altima says it should go 160mph , it doesn't . If you weighed 10lbs and jumped out of a plane with it I bet you could hit 35 easy. Good luck.

Re: 87 Spree stuck open throttle

I have put it in and take. It out more than 20 times . When its not in right it stops much shorter. I have it lined up perfect . I believe from reading other posts the little notch in the carb might be damaged so its stopping it from sliding down . I don't think it's fixable

1985 Spree starting then dying.

First post ever . New member . I have an 85 & an 87 Honda Spree . The 85 is giving me problems. It would start up and die immediately unless giving it gas. Now it just won't start at all. I don't know a lot about scooters. I just started working on them but love it. It's probably a common proble...
