Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

So the service guy at a shop notorious for bad business(i know, i know) says that i need a new intake manifold.

So i don't have much experience 'under the hood' as they say...so i turn to you guys

my bike:
Elite SR50
-72cc Motor Kit (Malossi)
-Carbon Race Reeds
-Carb Kit, 28mm
-Varator Kit
-Belt
-High End Gear Kit
-Heavy Duty Clutch Springs
-Varator Spring Upgrade
-Carb Filter Kit
-Clutch Weights

is the manifold, given the mods, going to be any different than stock? should i just buy it online? How long should this take, in terms of labor hrs.? and..should I just do it myself(limited tool box)?

ill sell you one for 35 shipped that is already modded

when you got the carb kit did it come with in intake?


chances are that if you have a 28mm carb, there is no way you are running the stock intake.
you will need a performance intake. I say call up the guys at VTCycles. 808-593-7733 and take to them.

i really dont know how an intake could go bad. Maybe the reeds but i dont get it.


as for working on it. is super easy.

And I think the Honda dealers have hired them all.
