the 93 much better buy. better ride and it can be made to go faster that a hopped up spree motor. you can also swap a dio motor right in no problem if you want later.

I love the rims on those older models. I wish I could get mine powder coated that color for a fair price!

I would go with the 93 though. Looks as nice as my 99, and mine rides like a dream.

'93 sa50 all the way. The spree is nice but when they are the same price, it is a no brainer IMO.

The 1993 seems to be a better buy. But that is my opinion. It's your decision.
