Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

So lately I picked up 3 more sprees (bringing my total to 4) none of the new ones are in good running order. I haven't started trying to fix them yet, but will keep you all posted as i go.... so the weird part it that all 3 of them (from different parts of the state btw) all have about 2800 miles on...

how much would something like this cost?

Try posting in Technical help... I'm pretty new to this stuff too but it could be a host of things. Can you describe what lead up to the slow down? were you putting oil in it regularly?

I'm curious to see what this was... OP keep us posted!

Yeah, turning the mix screw all the way in kills the motor and screwing much past 1 1/2 gets the little sucker really going! In all the instruction I've received it I see "reset the idle" what does that actually mean? Also spreetard, form reddit suggested trying the exhaust and carb from m...

Are these better than the OEM?

A bit of history: Been d*cking around with my carb trying to get my Spree working but I'm convinced that its not the carb... 1. I went through the carb again cleaned it and reinstalled it... still under powered.. tried it rich, tried it lean, tried it just right.... still slow here is a video : http...

clean the cylinder out and maybe clean out the exhaust?

could i be burning too much oil?

update! 1. I went through the carb again... still under powered tried it rich, tried it lean, tried it just right.... still slow here is a video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WrJoW_QynLU 2. I pulled the plug: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2K4pZRJNJc 3. wow i have a LOT of gunk in the cylinder...

the wheel stopped turning By wheel I meant the rear tire/rim of the scoot... You know if the revs get too high it engages the clutch and "wheel" start spinning.... if it goes up too high, lower the rpms with the idle stop screw again back to the same high idle. this confused the crap out ...

you think i should clean the carb again?

I'm not sure which those two holes are, but all the holes are all clear in the carb (Carb cleaner freely passed through every hole) I even the pulled the old q-tip with toothpaste trick to clean the seat for the float pin... Battery is new and sealed, i chargerd it up last night on a trickle charger...

Hi! Long time lurker, first time poster! I have 2 honda sprees. New to mechanical tinkering... One of my sprees works beautifully, it hesitates a bit when it is cold, but for the most part its very reliable and starts right up everyday, and gets up to about 26-27mph with me on it (260lb;) and has pl...
