Installing a LED headlight on my 2000 Elite. Want to use the original wiring and switch for this headlight to avoid having random toggle switches drilled into the plastics.

Honda Elite SA50P Stator

It struggles to even run blinkers at idle, and wont run brake lights and a blinker at the same time. Since these are discontinued through Honda, does anyone know if there is another...

Fan shroud and engine cowling vibrating

My 2000 Honda Elite S has a pretty good vibration in the cowling and fan shroud right around 1/4 to 1/2 throttle. I checked the bolts on the shroud and they are tight, what else could it be?

My honda elite is pretty cold blooded and occasionally starts hard(not often).
