Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

Cant wait to see this thing done. Gonna be a ripper for sure. I thought about doing this swap but all the nh125's around here for sale are overpriced. Waiting for a good deal to come along. Hmm, I wonder how far the tiny Spree gas tank will get you with this motor? Whats the MPG on the 125? My Spree...

Red wheels and floor for sure...I think the yellow side panel would make the decal pop.

Wouldn't want such sensitive information to fall into the wrong hands...lol

Rather have something stronger than a spot welded sheet metal frame for those off road bumps n jumps. My BMX days as a kid I remember snapping a couple frames on dirt jumps and back then I weighed 120 or so. Now that I tip the scales at about 200 and don't heal overnight Ive learned not to play with...

Yeah, I heard Bent Bike was closing so I called em a few weeks ago and asked if they had any 80's-90's Honda scooter parts. The guy was clueless on his inventory and told me I had to just come down and dig through the mountain of random sheit. I didn't wanna make the 1-1/2 hour drive to find out...s...

Factory sparkplug was still in it too..was NGK BPR4HS. Just got the noiseguy care package in the mail today. Filter/plug combo. She purrs now.

Heres a mind boggler, I have a parts motor sitting here(variated AF05 with carb, I think its from an Aero, not sure) so I thought Id rob the main jet out of it but when I pulled it...it was BLANK! No markings at all. Its shiny clean all the way around it and NOTHIN! There goes that idea.

15mi ride today was a success. Runs like a dream at 39mph holding wot for like 5 minutes. Strange, this is the second bone stock, unresticted se50 Elite "S" Ive had and both of them had #82 main jets. I bought a restricted se50p and it had an #82 as well. I thought only the Iowa had the #8...

The story behind it was the old dude that bought the Elite new in 1987 rode it for 5-6yrs and had racked up 2,400mi or so then had laid it down. He parked it in his garage where it sat for 20+ years and never rode it since. He gave it to his grandson to try and get it running but couldn't so that's ...

The twins!

off topic ? here...Theres a hole in the plastic under the front of the seat. Can be seen in the pic above. Has 3 markings off/on/res like there should be a 3 position valve there for fuel cutoff or something. Ive seen others' bikes where they ADD a shutoff valve in the fuel line when they run with n...

Thx, all I need now is this rain to quit so I can break-in the new brake pads. Anyone have a comment on how they seat new pads? Seems its like breaking in a new bore, all depends on who you ask... :wink: pads are EBC btw pg short pg short pg short yeah, since the Slick Willy thing isn't happeneing I...

So it turns out, benji, that tank had Red Kote in it! Flushed it out and its clean as a whistle. Gonna work great. In the mean time, I got the Metro wheels fitted with fresh tubeless rubber...Fully inflated came to about 3-3/16". Big step up from the 2-1/2" that were on there. Gloss black ...
