Re: Lower gearing for honda spree

I also considered a piece of brake line in between the throttle slide and the top that screws on top the carb to limit the slide pull.

Here is my near death experience with a spree today:
I re-wired the machine for kick-start only, and just the basics. No lights, blinkers etc. Got rid of the entire ...

Re: Lower gearing for honda spree

Amen on the throttle stop, I would like the machine to go thru some dirt without bogging out. The spree wont hack in it in any type of sand or dirt without a geardown. I have an extra block so I am thinking about cutting it to fit a gy6 clutch sheve which will hopefully help.

Re: Vibrator help ??!!

Has just started doing this vibration within the last 50 miles, I used to top out at 60mph, smooth as butter and feel safe doing it, not so much now :confused:

The only thing I could find was slop in the motor bushings, they are really bad...

I pushed them out by hand with a socket extension and ...

Re: Elite vs Zuma

Zx50 seems to be the most common and easy to get but I doubt it matches honda in quality of parts. How long would stock zx50 crank bearings hold up to a bbk.....
Or would a af16 bolt into a zx50 without major mods? I think that would be the way to go

Those first gen zumas are cheap around here (for ...
