Re: Honda Aero nb50 to nh125 Swap Project
I need to do the same thing for my center stand. Is it possible to post up some shots of the other side and maybe under? I want to see the bracket idea you went with and where you mounted to on the frame. Hows the tire clearance when in the "up" position?

Re: My 86' Iowa "HAWKEYES" Spree
How often do you see a Spree with petcock cover, glovebox AND floormat? Even a non-scooter nut should appreciate the time and effort put into this restoration. I go to car shows in the Summer and, honestly, I like newer cars built to the max. The classics just don't appeal to me but when I see one t...

Re: Massive Honda Spree Restoring Project - Check it out!
Im thinking if you were going to keep doing this it would be much more cost effective to invest in your own sandblaster. They have those pop-up tents to blast in and you can just wear a cheap-o tyvek suit with a respirator mask. Since youll be needing something big enough for a frame, the little san...

You could buy a new Chinese 125cc scooter for $700-$800...ride it for 300mi and throw it in the trash.... if it doesn't break down before then.

Re: NW scooter ride/meet-up?
Yup, Im in BUT.....I need to get my scoot dialed in. Been working on it here and there since September. Waiting on a few things to arrive in the mail and to find the extra time to tinker. Then theres this whole snow thing in the forecast. Im assuming this is a Spring time frame?

Re: Upcoming Presidential election
to further fuel the flames, I just went to buy tabs for my little 1987 scooter and it was $80!....really!? A tiny little moped costs $80!?! That's not title transfer or sales tax....only tabs! B to the S.

Re: 1985 Aero 50/ Spree 2-Bolt intake manifold option
Wow, huge difference in air volume. Is this going on the Spree that has the bbk, carb, gears and MLM? We need dyno results! lol.

Re: spark and fuel, will not start
Theres so many reasons of what it could be. You have to eliminate all the easy basic ones. Good rule of thumb: AIR: has to enter the airbox, flow through an oiled filter, go through the carb, go through the reeds, make it out the exhaust port and through the muffler. FUEL: has to flow from the tank,...

Re: corsa won't start
Possibly a timing issue. Even though the plug shows a spark when hanging out of the motor doesn't mean its operating properly. Stuck reeds will also cause it not to start. You've proven the fuel is flowing to the carb but is it making it into the cylinder? After trying to start it a few times, is th...

Re: I just picked up a elite af16..or dio? Right?. what next
The elite is not as good looking as a spree but I ride my elite way more because it's a way nicer and more comfortable ride. Totally agree. I have two se50 Elites and a Spree with an se50 Elite motor in it. I like the look of the Spree much more but I favor the Elites when wanting to go for a cruis...

Re: Upcoming Presidential election
Private sales should NOT be hit with sales tax. I bought a 1976 14' aluminum boat a few years back from my buddy for $1000. I had to pay sales tax on the $1000 when I transferred the title. I sold the boat last Summer and the new owner had to pay sales tax ON THE SAME BOAT! This being a 1976 boat it...
