Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

My Ruckus is beautiful stock. I won't be doing any mods other than the mild intake opening I did as well as removed the restrictor. Mine goes 45 in all the places a Spree will hit 30. The only time it won't is against a strong wind and it makes it feel like it is a fast spree instead of a Ruckus. I ...

I purchased a new Ruckus and it is unbelievable. I still have two registered Spree's and won't get rid of them, but I am happy to have a new scooter to ride when no one is with me. When the wind isn't against me I constantly hit the rev limiter going 45 stock. I also got over 100 miles before the ...

The fuel valve can leak into the intake or run full flow, both of which can cause problems. There is an overflow on the carb as well as a screw to drain the bowl, they are separate.

I can check if they have a kick starter. I still have an Aero 125 engine for sale if you want a spare after you purchase it. Thanks, Nathan

Jetting isn't trying to adjust for engine temp, however that can change with jetting. Jetting instead is ensuring that there are 14 parts air to 1 part fuel as best you can, carbs are not perfect. If I had my choice I would have the European version of our Ruckus, it is fuel injected. There are many ...

It's the fuel valve. I have had some that work with a free flowing fuel valve, but they always start pouring out the overflow at random times. I have changed the fuel valve and the leaking carbs no longer leak out the overflow.

My bad, the emulsion tube is the one that the main jet screws into. Sorry for the bad terminology.

once all of those tubes are out, just make sure air flows well throughout the body in all holes, there are three on the air intake side that meet up with fuel, make sure it flows free.

Be extremely careful when pulling the emulsion tube out (brass idle tube). If it is clogged you can soak it in a coke bottle for a while (day or more), then use a sewing needle if you need to poke out the varnish that is left. You will want to soak it again after that b/c it will not be open totally ...
