  • In this video we attempt to get this $200 Honda Spree 50cc up in running! These little scooters can be difficult to get running right and tend to have carburetor issues. Hopefully this video helps someone who's trying to rebuild their carb or get their bike tuned. Make sure your subscribed for more scooter content👍🤟🙏

    These were so cool when they first came out, and still are very cool. Will it start? Yes. Will it ride good? Yes. Will it outlast todays standard scooter? HELL YES. Cool bike there lots of local area fun. I have 2 big brothers an 84 125 Elite and 85 150 Elite.

    Not only you can’t find good quality OEM parts but when you do the prices are through the roof. For the Honda nc50 there’s a close carburetor to it that’s made for the Honda qr50 it’s OEM but it’s almost 200 dollars it’s expensive but worth it.

    This looks very similar to a 82 honda melody. Ive just recently aquired a similar one to my first 22 years ago. I need to strip engine and rebuild i also cannot figure out how to put the oil cog with the kickstart without moving off. Ive definitely found where the spring goes but cant see any info anywhere.

      I just bought a spree last weekend. I took it up a steeper hill and then down the hill and it started doing that exact same thing where it would just start dying when I tried to give it more gas. I took the plastic off it and the wiring is just a complete mess. I think I paid too much for the scooter so now I wanna make the damn thing run so I don’t feel bad.

      @@maxradecky7865 haha i feel you man! These can be tricky to get running perfect but once you do, they run forever. Take your time and try to diagnose what the issue is. Likely, it is fuel related or something with the electric choke. Good luck and keep me posted on if you find the problem👍🏼

    First of all it's an 85 not 87. The year is written right on the VIN plate of all Honda's!
    It's easy to see why your bikes run so bad. I'm sorry to sound mean but you do not go the extra mile to getting the bike running well! The carb is not the only thing that needs attention! I appreciate you trying but you really need to go over a service manual and get more familiar with the Spree!!! The Honda engines are bullet proof which is why you can get them running but I've yet to see anything on your channel running WELL!!! You don't do anything close to cleaning it up and "tuning".

    The loud awful music was totally unnecessary, because all of what you were saying was drowned out.
