Looks like the reeds and gaskets I planned to buy won't be available until noiseguy returns from vacation, anyone know where I can get new reeds and gaskets relatively quickly? I will be tapping the SB50 intakes for the oil line I got tomorrow and would like to get them installed I have the reeds that I got as well and they look, well, questionable. I know the reeds in the bike are good, can I just transfer those over to the SB50 reed block and use the larger openings (seems like it)? Even then I will still need the gaskets unless I cut my own. Which I can do, I just like using new stuff
Details of the mod are here: http://hondaspree.net/wiki/index.php5?t ... _the_Spree
Thanks to those who put this together.

Re: Milling Spree Head
86-87' Spree reeds and SB50 reeds are the same thing, so absolutely interchangeable. The Spree reeds in this picture are from an 84 or 85 model year.
Also, noiseguy sells reeds but not the cages, you won't want to use the old cage if what you have is from an 84-85, don't recall which you said you had.

Ok, I'll go that route. I do have SB50 cages as well that I got with the intakes. I will use the known good reeds that are currently on the bike (85') and transfer them to the SB50 cages . Thanks for all the help. As any new addiction, I'm learning the nuances here. I'm fully capable of doing all the machine work, etc. Clean up those intakes and get them tapped this evening.
You wouldn't happen to know where I can get a oil "nipple" (or whatever the f&*# it's called), for the intake to press in do you? I was thinking I may be able to get the one out of the stock intake with some heat, but haven't tried that yet, embarrass teenagers in subdivision tomorrow!
