I love my SE50 '87 Elite. I'ts kind of an in between model. Some parts from the '87 Sprees will interchange. They are bigger and heavier than a SB50, but not quite as large as an SA50. Not much in the way of storage either. I love the way they look. I added a Scooter Swap Shop pipe and upjetted mine as they are variated AF05E engines. Just scored a windshield too.

Looks like they both have the storage trays on them and that's the only thing missing on mine!

Greetings:

Delicate, slim lines and nicely proportioned. I've felt for a long time that the '87 Elite is arguably the best-styled scooter of them all.
