Hello! '89 Honda Vision - performance improvements

Post by Mike D »

Hello folks! :)

I'm Mike from the UK, I picked this vision (NE50MFF) up off the trading post at work for £200, it's in pretty good condition, but after a bit of digging I assume it is restricted like some of your aero models? It uses the AF05E motor, it has a 2 bolt manifold but is variated. Max speed seems to be around 30mph.. Have you any ideas what I could do to try and coax 40 ish mph out of it? From what reading up I have managed, as there isn't much specific to the vision anywhere, is that I need an unrestricted variator, I've found one here, should this do the job?

What sort of roller weights should I be looking at too please?

Also, exhaust wise it has one like this:

Would a leo vince SP3 be a good upgrade? I have found one for not too much money.. would I need to alter my jetting to suit any of these upgrades?

Here's a picture of the road burner itself..

Sorry I posted in the wrong forum by the way.

graphite9, I assume it's the SP3 4447 if I can find one?

Wonderful! I've managed to buy a new one from Italy for £42 delivered! :)

Hopefully that and an unrestricted variator should pep it up a bit.

I'm not after turning it into a mega speed machine, I've got other things for that, but with about 40mph I wouldn't mind using it for work over the summer

Greetings:

That's a good exhaust for the AF05. It intruded on the Aero side panels a little, but the high-cut Vision plastics shouldn't interfere. The SP3 leaves the stock pipe for dead. You should be able to see 9500RPM
