87 Spree Question!

Hi, I have a 1987 Honda Spree and I have a question about interchangeable parts and side panels, because I'm getting tired of trying to find a decent rear face plate (tail light, lic. plate and turn signal assembly) that has to be one of the most hardest parts to find for the scooter. I'm trying to ...

Spree Trouble

Just an update on my Spree, I had a chance to clean the carb. today and she runs real nice. What can I do to prevent this from happening again, is there anything I can add to the tank after I fill up with gas?
Thanks Ron

Speedy Spree!

Thanks for the reply CharlotteSpreeRider, I'll clean the carb and decarbonize the muffler and but first I'll have to find out how to decarbonize a muffler, how do you do a plug chop? Sorry I'm new to all of this and my first moped was a 1978 Honda Express NC50. She treated me well for the 18 yrs. I ...

Speedy Spree!

Hello All,
I have a 1987 Honda Spree and it does about 31 mph. on the flat, wonder if there is an easy way to get it to go about 40 mph. and what would have to be done to get her there. One problem I find I'm having, but do not know if it is common in the sprees is when at a stop light/sign it's ...
