Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

A few towns over I found a friend who repairs motorcycles and ATVs and he let me pick through his parts bin-





I forgot to get a picture of the barn full of engines.

I picked these up today-

I think this is a Sachs Suburban. I am not sure of the year just yet.



A couple more Sprees in various states of disrepair (with one totally intact seat!).


There were other scoots and bikes out there that I may go back and get - a Honda Express, a couple Honda Express SRs, a Yamaha Chappy, lots of Honda CT90s, etc.

I was hoping to find a Honda Express II or two in order to find parts for mine-


Does anyone know if the engine parts of the Express, Express II and the Express SR are interchangeable?

Wow lots of sad looking bikes.. hope you give your finds a good home

Happen to see any 94+ Elites out there? or yamaha jogs?

Nice lil salvage yard you found there. Honda Express are the Same from 77-80. 81's share some parts but have 2-speed motors. SR Express shares nothing at all, its a different animal. Might share a few parts with Urban or maybe even early Spree or Aero. I need the headlight out of that SR express if its any good. Let me know if you go back.

Sachs Balboa? http://www.mopedarmy.com/photos/brand/38/634/

No Elites. There was a Yamaha something-er-other but I didn't get the model. It was missing a lot of parts. The fairing looked like a Honda Aero fairing.

yahama made 2 major mopeds in the states. Jogs and Razz.
the razz was much like a spree in the fact that it could not be made fast.
However the jog's are amazingly fast and can out run any elite -mod for mod-

Razzes are nothing big, but if that is a yamaha jog out there its one of the faster mopeds motors there is.
(if you need a better view of a yamaha jog i have a 360 video in my sig.)

Oh and nice find.

Yeah, it's a Razz. Bummer.
