Nothing.
Recently purchased the six year old Elite. Watching oil approaching $140.00 certainly justifies the purchase, as I am getting well over 100 mpg, in spite of weighing 215 lbs.
Performance is more than adequate.
Honda reliability should assure several years of trouble free ownership.
Wow... over 100mpg?? I have an Elite 80 as well.. get closer to 90mpg (sometimes as low as 85mpg). I have never heard of an 80cc bike getting that high of mpg. I know several 50cc bikes that will, including the Honda Metropolitan.
I will say this, though. Scooters are, and will be the next big wave of the future, if prices of gas keep climbing (already now at a national average of $4.03/gal). It is unfortunate that Honda does not make the Elite anymore. They only make the 50cc, and 600cc bikes now. A good alternative to the Elite, if you are looking to buy new, is the Yamaha Vino 125 (125cc).
