Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

That's a cool looking little bike.

Bizarre. I'm looking forward to the engine pics. Someone's swapped something into your scoot, but I have no idea what type of engine it is from that pic. Once we get better pics we should be able to ID it here.

I seriously doubt that's a legit Honda model: Why not?

1) Honda didn't run injectors on their highest output bikes (VF750F/1000F) of that era, can't see them running them on a Spree.

2) Never seen a turbo, stock, on any Honda bike. Again, why the Spree?

Same above 2 arguments hold for an overseas model shipped here. The Elite/Aero 50 of that era would have been a much better candidate for a big engine; better frame and chassis. Get a pic of the headbadge (VIN plate on headtube); anything legit from Honda would be noted there.

Looking forward to those engine pics.

whats ur top speed?

What about the CX500 turbo?


If this thing really has a turbo and fuel injection, I won't believe it until I see a pic of it with its side panels off. If Honda really did make this thing, why didn't they put an expansion chamber on it for more power? Can a spree even have enough exhaust moving out the cyl. to drive even a tiny turbo? How is this turbo cooled?

Doh! Good catch! I'd forgotten about those. Were those even sold in the States, or just Canada?

I believe so. A friend had a '81 CX500, non turbo. I think that the CX500 turbo's didn't sell too well in the US, or something of the sort.

what happend to this

yeah..i wanna know

also why would honda fuel inject and turbo a bike but still use a stock exaust?

notice how he conviently does this pic..maybe so as not to reveal the stock set up? im calling hiss * out

i wasted 20 min on reading this

I see a standard stock Spree exhaust which would make a turbo useless. I also am gonna cal BS on this.
