Re: I’m back, Spree won’t start anymore

You're okay...it would seem the oil pump has let 2-stroke oil seep down into the cylinder, and the crankcase. You have already pumped out the oil in the cylinder, but LIKELY there is still oil in the crankcase. Possibly oil has also migrated to the muffler, but not necessarily. Personally, I'm not ...

Re: 1997 honda 50, engine model?

Yes Mr. ehaughn, the year and VIN both indicate the bike has AF16 engine.
To further confirm it is correct, you will find a number stamped on the tail of the engine case.
Small rectangular boss with number stamped will include "AF16" in that number.

Re: Honda Spree 1987

MY QUESTION IS SHOULD FUEL BE FLOWING OUT THE GAS LINE WHEN I REMOVE IT FROM THE CARB? ... NO because mines dry and I tried blowing on it and couldn’t blow through will try and suck in 1 sec ... The reason no fuel comes out is because the petcock must have vacuum applied to the hose that connects p...

Re: The Daily Chat w/motor & Vintage

Greetings: Rare to see one in such pristine condition! Dude! Swap in a Dio!! This bike is a limited edition reproduction made in the late 90's. Yes, still somewhat rare, and in pristine, unmolested condition. I got it with the intention to only ride it while cruising car shows and the like.

Re: Bystarter/autochoke delete on 1985 Aero 80 with new carb?

My personal choice is to maintain oil pumps in use and enjoy the convenience of pumping gas into the tank without any hassle or any constant carrying oil with me. Converting the oil tank to reserve fuel supply is done, but since I've never done it, no opinion. I have a great deal of confidence in o...

Re: Bystarter/autochoke delete on 1985 Aero 80 with new carb?

First, yes, you can block all the hoses associated with the choke if your new carb has a manual choke. Second, thieves need to be hung, shot, boiled in oil, and sodomized. Third, I would do a very close inspection of the brass tube that is associated with the overflow. I have seen(several times) th...

Re: Honda Shadow 50cc -> big bore kit

Greetings: The red - on - Chrome scooter in the pics above appears to be a Chinese machine sold as the "Venice 150" among probably many other names. That is no Honda as far as I can tell. The only badging I could see in your pictures is stamped on the belt cover, which also looks like no ...
