Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

what is Vt? is that a website or a store? is that a moped shop?

how much $?

do you screw it into the flywheel and screw a bolt that pushes against the crankshaft?

does anyone know how i could acquire ownership of a flywheel puller for a 87 elite se50? any specialty websites, links, or threads would be nice. thanks, Ed James

air filters are expensive when purchased from a dealer. i would prefer to make my own. does anybody have any links, threads, or sites to offer, where i can acquire some moped-quality air filter material in a big sheet? thanks

don't overtighten the cylinder bolts. i never go over 8.5 ft/lbs.

you may have oil in the block. this happens with suzuki mopeds. if you want to check it, remove the intake manifold from the block and look inside.
