Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

I have recently decided to sell my 1984 Spree and am wondering what kind of price I should ask for. It's in awesome condition, runs well, only has 230 km on it. All parts are original - even the tires. There's no tears in the seat, only minor scuff marks on the body which could easily be fixed. It ...

Is there a way to judge the correct position of the idle screw without any tools, or is it up to chance and fiddling?

I recently installed a new bystarter into my 84 spree, thinking it was my only big problem, but I am still experiencing quite a few hiccups. I am still having to plug the air intake when starting it, and I don't know how to fix this. It starts after a few tries and runs to some extent, but sounds ...

Couple rubber straps and a zip up binder?

Heh, that would definitely get the job done. Maybe I'll look in an office supply store for a small rectangular lock box. I find the trunks look too insectoid and unbalanced and silly, and milk crates just won't cut it. I like the baskets but they aren't ...

I had thought about them but those seem really bulky and awkward...I guess I'm looking for something with not a lot of height.

What sort of cases, lockboxes, et cetera can anyone recommend that will fit on the rear rack of the Spree and not look too stupid? I am looking for something on the smaller side that can close to keep documents, papers, manuals in, nothing like a milk crate or basket. I've seen saddlebags on some of ...

Whoah, what a sweet set of Sprees!

Honda Parts Direct e-mailed me to say that the parts I want for my 84 spree are discontinued (then they had the nerve to ask me if I was still willing to pay $35.58 for one nut), so I'm out of a bystarter. I really need a new one, and I am not sure where else to look. I live in Canada so shipping is ...

You can order it from the Honda PowerSports dealer, part 16046-GK8-003. You should also be able to order it from http://www.hondaparts-direct.com .

Beautiful. Any recommendations as to what I should also look at replacing/cleaning before getting it on the road? It's been sitting for a ...

So my bystarter is shot, and I'm looking for a replacement. Where would be an ideal place to get a new one? Honda parts store? Do they even still make them? Is there a newer model that'll work with the spree? I saw one for an aero on ebay, but I don't know if it's compatible. Anyone think eBay is my ...

This is my new 1984 Spree. Just bought it Sunday from a guy whose grandfather only put 212 km on it. Still had the tank of gas in it from when it was last used in 1994. Needs to be cleaned, de-gunked, but it looks like it just came off the line.

The only problem so far is with the auto choke. I ...
