Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

Hi, on my elite i just saw the oil thing that the hose from the tank goes to and then goes to the carb. This thing has a spot for a throttle cabel on it, is there supposed to be a cable on it ?

Also what is the thing called?

Not really sure what you're describing here.. some have split throttle cable with seperate cable for oil, but if you have that it should be attached.

Some elites have a split throttle cable on then, one going to the carb and one going to the pump.
Other elites do not, there is only one cable that goes straight to the carb.

If you are going to unrestricted your bike what you want to do is take a a wire tie or a ziptie and fasten it so it is help open all the time.

isn't this going to give the engine too much oil when travelling at low RPMs?

Yes.
but as long as your using good oil it wont be a big deal. i have mine ziptied open and i have not had one problem yet with riding at low RPMs. your motor at low RPMs is safe no matter what. To much oil will not hurt it (in reason of course)

Can the split throttle cable from the non-restricted SR be installed on the S?

yeah, i guess it could.

but there is no reason to. Just wire tie it open.

is there any specific of kind of two stroke oil that works well on elites?

When in doubt, use Honda GN2, every Honda motorcycle shop has at least a crapload of it. You simply cannot go wrong with GN2 in these bikes, although other stuff can work.
