Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

Comparison:

Upgrading to a metro front rim with a elite brake hub. The wheel uses a bigger 90/90 tire and the brake is also bigger.

it scrapes the pavement when making sharp right hand turns because the spree sits a little lower] try using shock extensions to raise up the rear of the bike. I had the same problem on my Spree when I was trying different exhausts. Scraped the ground in full lean doing 30 and nearly dumped it....it...

Had a little issue getting the exhaust flange sealed so I ordered a new gasket and this is what they sent me, it's less than half the thickness of a honda brand gasket. I sent this comparison pic and tried to explain it to the seller, all they said was "The gaskets seals on contact and does not...

I used rustoleum "aluminum" metallic silver. looks good, but obviously shinier and sparklier. I used the same stuff too from home depot, it was the primer+paint type and then a clear coat. You're right about being a little a little too sparkly, a week later it looked a little duller. http...

I switched out exhaust from my spree nh125 to the aero, it scrapes the pavement when making sharp right hand turns because the spree sits a little lower. It shouldn't be a problem on the aero and the blue silencer even matches, I guess that means I'll have to make a new exhaust for the spree. http:/...

Got the supplies to wire up some under glow lights.

think it will make it out to spring scoot? It might be done by then but if the ride lands on a crappy weather day I'll probably just skip it. They should start a summer or fall scoot ride, early spring weather here sucks. I guess I'm just a fair weather rider, I took it for a spin around the neighb...

Had to get a longer rear brake cable, first one I ordered was longer than advertised. Second cable fit but metal collar at the end broke after pulling the hand lever couple of times. Hope this third cable is the winner... http://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx310/Rabbitfcker/Honda%20Aero%20Swap/DSC06...

Been hoping to see some updates on this build! Gonna be a rippin scoot for sure. The nh125 had a curb weight of 196lbs and was able to run 55-60mph. I can only imagine what it does in a featherlight Spree frame. Anyone want to make some guesses on top speed? Yeah it should be a good ripper, the tru...

Pretty much done with wiring, everything appears to work. It was a little more work than expected, made over 25 solder connections. http://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx310/Rabbitfcker/Honda%20Aero%20Swap/DSC06294.jpg http://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx310/Rabbitfcker/Honda%20Aero%20Swap/DSC06296....

Made some progress on wiring, cut off the wide connectors from the cluster and soldered on nh125 connectors.
