Nothing without spending some $$$ really. And by that time, it's smarter to get an AF16 motor or a complete elite. Sprees were never meant to go fast. Mine averages 33 via spreedometer and 31.6 GPS

You may check with Taz to see what the end results of his complete kit is. I think it's about $235 though. Hills are always going to be a problem. I live where there are tons of hills as well. Which is why I went ahead and got an sa50.

Just attach the file below the text box. Most of the time, the images will be too big, in which case you will have to resize them. There are plenty of free resizers online. Many of the board members use imageshack.

this is the bike as i got it the ratchet strap one is the only way i could get the dam nut loose for the clutch looks ruff rite now but it runs pretty good considering the fuel valve sticks and the clutch is shot

Not bad. If/when you get a new one. Try to get an se50 or even better a 94-01 sa50. <has most mods that can be done cheap[er]

thanks ill keep that in mind this ones pretty small but its kinda cool i have a honda elite 150 as well but it knocks so i parked it

I'm considering getting rid of my spree. I have a good buddy who would really enjoy it and treat it right. It's really a niche bike. The elites (minus the sb50; in my opinion) are easy to tune and a bit more fun for commuting. Oh the joys of being in college.
