That bar is a very very good idea sprees flex with a stock motor, so I can imagine what it would be like with the big power plant stuffed in itTyler VR wrote:I decided to add this adjustable support bar like I did on my nh125 spree.

Yup, I can really feel the difference how much the frame stiffens up.patthesoundguy wrote: That bar is a very very good idea sprees flex with a stock motor, so I can imagine what it would be like with the big power plant stuffed in it

Re: Spree Engine Swap: Honda Elite CH80 onto Spree
how did you get the ch80 forks to fit the narrow spree down tube?

Re: Spree Engine Swap: Honda Elite CH80 onto Spree
The elite forks fit through the spree frame neck without issue, but the lower spree collar bearing was too narrow. I removed the collar from the frame and used my rotary dremel tool to shave some metal from the inner diameter. It was pretty easy, only took a couple mins to do.Trafficjamz wrote:how did you get the ch80 forks to fit the narrow spree down tube?
Re: Spree Engine Swap: Honda Elite CH80 onto Spree
Hit the bare metal with a little primer for now. I'm starting the wiring soon...
Re: Spree Engine Swap: Honda Elite CH80 onto Spree
Got enough wiring done to run it up and down the neighborhood once in the rain, feeling some nice 4-stroke torque.
I still need to hook up the lights and wire the cluster, the rear brake cable is seized even after soaking in oil the passed few days.
