Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

Its been a long time since I posted in this forum, but I just wanted to say 'hi' and thank everyone for all the help. The Honda se50 has been running perfectly thanks to the help I found here. I've been letting my tenant use it to get to her job and it works great! I can't believe a whole year and p...

Greetings: I thought I'd give this a bump as there have been a couple of questions regarding Elite S vs Elite SR pump delivery lately. At least this graph gives us a ballpark from which to extrapolate. Keep in mind that the pump stroke is RPM-dependent, and there is every reason to believe that the...

20 mile ride today in 28 degree weather, brr, but the scoot is running good

I took the jet back out. The first 2 times I checked the carb, I gave it a tentative stab with a safety pin and could see light through it and figured it was clean. I also sprayed carb cleaner through it but did not soak it. This time I took a safety pin and ground the shaft of it into a triangle sh...

Ok I just replaced the belt with a brand new oem one and installed the koso hi performance variator. It made it better, but not perfect. It ran BETTER when it was stone cold, which suggests it has a fuel gettification problem (It needs to GET more fuel), Because the bystarter is throwing extra fuel ...

The pilot circuit was what I concentrated on yesterday. I had to take a bread twistee wire and poke it into the tiny port in the throat of the carb to get it open. I sprayed brake clean through from the pickup tube and the hole for the airscrew and all those passages are clean. The jet is clean and ...

I forgot I had a prior engagement for Motorama today. I cleaned the carb again and fuel flow from the tank is good. I moved the clip on the needle and made it richer, and it really seemed to help it for about 5 minutes, then it was back to the bogging down when opening the throttle. Hopefully I can ...

Clean out the grease completely and remove the back plate and screws, worked well for me. I guess most weights are round, and some like the dr. Pulley ones are kinda pointed. I don't kno what's better. Thank you for the reply. I took a test ride last night and the scooter is having trouble getting ...

http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/a493/traviscash/SAM_1742_zpsgavoijhu.jpg replaced the crank seals tonight and it looks like it was a good idea. http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/a493/traviscash/SAM_1743_zps7clbe7hk.jpg The variator looked like it was full of grease, but it smelled strongly of...

I found this variator from an earlier scooter that I had, it was a chinese 50cc four stroke jonway. Will this fit in this honda? I guess I'll find out when I replace the crankshaft seals tomorrow

Also installed the front panel, inner panel and glove box, and replacing the left turn signal lense

(Except tag light bulb, its burnt out)

That is an excellent idea, but considering I failed to do it before reassembling the p.i.t.a instrument cluster, I think I'll save it for next time.I rode it around tentatively after installing the new piston and the front end felt ok. Doing it your way would probably save me from having to buy a se...
