96' Honda Elite

Yes, I'm aware this is a scooter. A friend of mine wants help to make his speed increase, he also wants to be able to climb hills faster than 5 mph. What can I do to increase top end and acceleration up hills and on flat ground? What is essential for this scooter to have and what can be gotten rid of? Scooter people thanks in advance for your help.

Re: 96' Honda Elite

Assuming your engine is top-notch now,to get what you want you'll have to modify your carb.,exhaust, and intake or hop-up the engine with a `bore-kit',but maybe someone has a better idea.Remember, you're asking for more hill-climbing power AND top speed out of the same modification.That can be difficult without there being something wrong already,like restricted exhaust or intake manifold,etc.

Re: 96' Honda Elite

No. As of now, everything is restricted and this thing has never had a tune up. It sounds like it's barely running, and it climbs large at hills at a whoppin 5 mph. So what can be done?

Re: 96' Honda Elite

Hi,Ben! Well,do the tune-up ! Make sure the exhaust port isn't plugged and the pipe and muffler aren't plugged with carbon,AND CHANGE THE SPARK PLUG!Also make sure your throttle is actually opening and the choke isn't staying shut on you.Where's `Crusty `ol Fred' when you really need him?

Re: 96' Honda Elite

It all depends on what you have to work with. Do you have access to aftermarket parts or are you working with stock parts? If you have to use stock stuff you could take out all the restrictors but even then you'll need a slightly larger jet.
