Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

I have the 87 SE50. Tops out stock at 45mph . I have the Keli vari but not yet installed. I wanted maybe another 8-10 mph increase in top speed. I'm shooting for 55mph and not intending any faster than that with those little wheels. Would the Keli Vari ,upjet and an extra hole on the airbox give me the additional 10mph? I'd like to keep things quiet so trying to stay with the stock airbox

Your going to need some major mods to get much faster at all.

Is that 45 mph indicated? The speedo is a little faster than actual. If you are truly hitting 45 mph, count yourself lucky. 45 mph is pretty good for a stock se50 with minor mods but then you maybe hitting 40 mph. Any faster requires a 63cc or 65cc bbk, bigger carb or upjetting and a modified gear set.

Yes it was hitting 45mph and maybe a couple more if I tried hard. I opened up the variator and the Variator has been upgraded to a keli. It had 9gr rollers and a couple with flat spots. I also noticed the belt was a polini in great condition. New gaskets too on the cover . I got this Elite about 6 weeks ago. Maybe that's why it's hitting those speeds. Pretty smooth and quiet ride. You're right I should be thankful it's hitting those speeds and still does good mpg with realibility behind it. Any advise on clutch upgrades? Is it worth it?
I had a new Keli that I installed. I do have a spare used keli variator with used 9gr rollers for trade for new 8 gr rollers if anyone is interested.? Thanks

Still not answered - 45 on the speedo or gps? Do you know your RPMs?

45 on the speedo. Trying to keep things subtle. Not into modding to the max. I got a Helix and I use that if I wan to go farther. Speedo might be off, hoping not too much. RPM? Mine is stock.I got no Tach to compare rpm. I use this se50 to do errands and still gives me at least 70 miles on the tank
