new at this...the kickstand is loose, do i need to replace that spring?...also, the rear brake cable seems loose and sometimes sticks...nonetheless, i am thrilled that my spree is still running...though, the electric start doesn,t work and recently had to replace the kickstart...i am hoping that i may be able to keep it running, i bought it new in '86 and it has been stolen 3 or 4 times, always to be found and returned to me...i see that as a sign that it is meant to be mine!

Replace the spring, it should only run you two or three dollars at a Napa or equivalent parts store. I'd wait for someone elso about the rear brake, I haven't encountered that (yet) and would like to know what to do as well. So all the scratches and gouges are from you, huh?
Good luck!

Either oil or replace the rear cable; funky cables usually aren't worth dealing with.
