Hi, FNG here with his first post. Anybody have a pdf of the Elite SE50P owner's manual or know where I can download one? I'd like to start some work on this new scoot I just inherited from a buddy.
Thanks!
Tom

We don't have the SE50 ('94+) manual. The SA50 is here, but needs to be scanned in.
If anyone finds the SE50 manual scanned, I'll host it.

Noiseguy - Thanks for the offer to post the SE50P manual it if it becomes available. I spent 3 hours surfing trying to turn something up but no dice, not even close. Seems there are many Honda 50 cc motors but again I have no idea if there's something compatible or even close. This model appears to be fairly rare.
I really can't do a thing with this scoot since I have no idea how to:
a) start it
- the actual procedure
- how to use kick - if it is a kick starter
b) change all fluids
c) what specs are for refilling fluids oil, tranny etc
d) what type of fluids
d1) is there an oil filter
e) tire size - despite the obvious of looking at the tires - I don't know if they are original.
f) type of oil to use - presume 2 stroke?
g) panel removal to gain access to engine
h) all basic maintenance procedures - air cleaner
I'm pretty much hosed - just got home Saturday am from a long trip and wanted to get *something done* on it - bandaged the seat with ducttape so that's a start I guess ....
So it looks like now Sunday will be shot too.
Unless somebody takes pity on me, it looks like I don't have too many options.
Bummer.

cant be hard to take the panels off!that right there is the basic start,take them off to see what condition the bikes in.work from there.write down what u think u need, then call or look some places. "just my 2 cents"

edward,
thanks for the post. i was hoping to get a lil more than the yer 2 cents about taking off the panels. i can prolly manage that - yeah i should've not said that one specifically, I included it to illustrate the basic prolblem I am facing.
So you have an SE50P owners manual? If so, would you pls address the key points above?
I'd be grateful....

hey darat,
since it seems you have the only copy of the SE50P owners manual, i have a proposition for you.
if you send Noiseguy a copy/scanned copy/pdf of the SE50P manual so he can post it on the site, I'll make a donation to Noiseguy for upkeep of this site.
whaddya say?

Hey Darat,
You have a copy of the SE50 manual? Not interested in sharing? What's up with that? And why even post that you have it if you aren't willing to put it up?

Well I guess I tried. I was kinda hoping I'd get a bit of help on my key questions listed above or perhaps even luck out and get a manual. Due to a lack of interest/response/support whatever, I found it on the web and ordered it.
Thanks Noiseguy for the help.
