Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

neat stuff z50r! you should snap some pictures and then sign up at photobucket.com so you can upload them to that site and post the images or links here. i'd love to see them.

Nice post BeeMain. This swap is something I'm thinking about doing as well so please keep this thread updated with your progress/findings. Where in Canada are you at? I'm out in Whistler, BC.

Hmm....good thinking. I wonder how well it would bolt in. If I can find an Aero 50 to buy then I'll look into this. An Aero 50 with an NH80 engine would be an awesome scooter. You'd get the cheap insurance and side panel storage of the 50cc with the power of the NH80.

Yeah Aero 125's are rare birds indeed. The reason I ask about this is because I actually have a spare engine for an Aero 80. I don't have an Aero 50 yet but I'm hoping to buy one soon. I would be nice to save the $90 or so if possible. If you could make the NH80 cylinder work, you could also overbor...

Does anyone know how close an NH80 cylinder is to fitting on a NB50/SE50 engine? If the bolt pattern and skirt size are the same then perhaps the cylinder and engine case could be ported to match? The NH80 has a 48mm bore so it's not much bigger than the big bore kits for this engine which are about...

Wow! Nice pipe for the Aero 50....if only I could find an Aero 50 to buy then I'd be all over buying this pipe too.

Neat....I love the styling of the earlier Aero 50's so I'll do a little microfiche browsing to see if the Dio engine should bolt in to these as well. A pristine '83 Aero 50 with a 50-55mph Dio engine would be a scooterists wet dream.

Wow beautiful Aero 50's guys.....I really want to find one in my area that I can pick up.

Hmm....swapping in a Dio engine is an interesting idea. So you say a Dio engine will bolt right in? So if I was to swap in a stock Dio engine, I would need the motor, swingarm, exhaust, carb, airbox etc? Anything else? Can you use the Aero 50 wiring or do you need to use the Dio wiring harness? I'd ...

Thanks for all the help guys. I'd prefer to get an Aero 50 over a Dio (I live in Canada) because I like the styling of the Aero 50 better and because it has a glovebox. The Dio probably is the practical choice but the styling just doesn't do it for me....it looks too much like a Jog. I really like t...

Good to know....I ditched the oil injection on my last scooter ('83 Yamaha Beluga aka Riva 80) so I'm comfortable with premixing.

Sorry is this 45-50 with just the gears and pulley kit? Or the big bore as well?

Guys, I'm considering buying an Aero 50 for my next scooter. I'd get an '85 - '87 model (so that aftermarket parts are available for it). What I'm trying to get a sense of here is the hop up potential for this scooter. My goal is to get to 45-50 mph while largely retaining the reliability, look and ...

How does the exhaust mount up? It looks like the caliper bracket is stealing the mounting holes for the pipe.

Thanks....I'm working on a website (www.MotorScooterGuide.net) that has info on every single Honda, Yamaha and Suzuki scooter, so I'm in the middle of a lot of research.
