noob needs help deciding to buy
Posted: Mon Nov 27, 2023 4:11 pm
I'm new to spree/elite and could use your infinite wisdom please!
First, I'm pretty sure up to '97 the motor is good. And by good I mean a good platform for performance. But I seem to remember that motor run starting in '84, which would mean the '83 I'm looking at barely missed the run. Am I correct? Or even in the ballpark?
Next, how do you identify different motors? Are there any obvious signs to look for in pictures? What is an "S" model?
Finally, is there a way to tell from pictures if it's a 50cc or an 80cc if the owner doesn't know? Does a 50cc have more easily available aftermarket parts than an 80cc?
Thank you so much for your help. These are probably the dumbest questions ever, so thank you for schooling a NOOB!
