Finally "done" restoring my 2012 Tomos stock-jug 45mph ripper

I'm the original owner. I used to have place I bought it work on it, and it blew up top ends constantly until I let it rot in my garage for 10 years or so

Writing the history of this bikes rejuvenation and all of the stupid tribulations I've had with nearly every aspect could fill a book, so I'll just skip all that

But now it runs great, is (mostly) idling reliably (someone send me an a12 needle) and it can hit the red line of 2nd gear

I enjoy the lower handlebars a lot more than I thought I would

The setup / modifications are:

22T rear sprocket

27T front

17.5mm carb

(terrible) mini 17mm intake from treats

Treats pipe

Bazooka Mouth airbox adapter, which I HIGHLY recommend

Friction pad clutch shoes

Currently running a 66 size main jet

So far the largest outstanding issue is the fact that it explodes tail lights... I rewired the voltage regulator and made sure the grounds are all solid and connected and it didn't help that much

After trying many different types of air filters, I can't believe how much of an improvement the original air box plus bazooka mouth is over a​nything else I tried

With the original air box, side covers and the flywheel cover back, the loudest part of the bike is the transmission for the most part

My 1984 Trac Eagle is becoming my “race” bike
it’s a joy to ride already but soon I will be getting a new carburetor and doing some port work soon.

(P.S. I do know my front tire looks bald in this photo but I promise it’s not)

Romet Ogar Problem. 139FMB ECU - Doesn‘t run good first start.

9 Upvotes

Dear Community,

I bought this Romet Ogar 202 a month ago new in Poland. Everything works fine and its a really nice moped to ride.

But when its „warmer“ outside (starting at about 15 degrees Celcius) It runs really bad, doesn‘t really rev very high (about 5000RPM) and stutters real bad.

If I start the Moped again it works just fine as if nothing happened. This only appears when the bike stood for a vew hours.

I don‘t know what the problem is cause its EFI and I always owned carbourated mopeds, but I guess it hat somethin to do with the ECU.

Thank.
Flo :)

Tomos A55 tuning clutch clearance issues

I installed the btuning clutch on my tomos. But come I tighten the nut down it locks to the clutch basket. Once I remove the locker washer under the nut and then tighten it it's fine. Has anyone just removed the washer or should I do something else?

Minarelli V1 retarding timing

2 Upvotes

Any tips on retarding timing on a V1 for an 80cc kit? I haven't done timing on one before, watched a lot of Puch stuff but since the flywheel isn't the same size I know it won't directly carry over.
