Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

After riding it around for a while the smell seemed to be gone(or I got used to it). Either way the bike seems to be in decent shape.

Its so small and cute that I think I am going to have to keep an eye out for one of these for myself. It was effortless to just hop on it and go as compared to my ...
