1987 se50 elite mlm pipe.

Hey guys
I put on the mlm pipe as well as 1500rpn springs and contra. Also up jet to an 86(might up again to 88)…I don’t have a scale so wondering what stock weight is for rollers so I know where to start with variator tuning. Or what size gram anyone suggests.? Thanks

Re: Help with '87 Spree :-(

Hey.. did you try drilling a hole in the gas cap to help it vent.. and FYI. My harbor freight compression tester never went above 80 on my spree. Tried a snap on and it was perfect.

Re: Electronic 2 Pin LED Flasher Test

I finally got LED blinkers working on the rear of the old spree . My question is how hot do they resistors get.? I got the tiny aluminum fin ones that i screwed underneath the frame away from anything. When I do the front I wanna know how to safely place the resistors … thanks

Re: 85' Spree fires up then dies
