<HTML>hmm...i used to own a spree, and i had the same problem. if your spree has an electric start, there's not much that you can do about the battery going dead, except by getting a mini-battery charger and leaving it on the battery when you aren't riding the moped, which should keep it charged enough to get you where you're going and back home again. if you have a kick start, well, you know how to get those going...take care...</HTML>
