Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

i would like to thank all you fine people who respond to our questions on the technical side. I recently rebuilt most of my 84 spree and without the sage advice, wisdom and the patience of an Apache belonging to y'all I would of been deprived of the satisfaction of getting this thing running, and ...

is there a general checklist i could follow to winterize a spree? i would figure from reading for info that studded tires are available, the spark plug i would figure have to change, quick question would i winterize this thing the same way i'd wintertune my chainsaw?

after removing and cleaning the carburetor, Bistarter valve and putting in a new petcock, I'm riding again but the idle seems way too high, what's the best way to approach this? I've set the idle crew and throttle to service manual specs.

some dude i talked to at a autostore told me i'd have to adjust/tune my carb every ride due to weather. True?

how would i be able to tell, i'm new at this

i've cleaned my carburetor and when i started er up it ran full out it stalled, seems like i have no control over throttle, could it be the cable?

new to this, have done some research any good advice?

i've just bought it, spark test passed, fuel to carburetor but no start, how do i take this off to clean and where's a good place for a new one if needed
