Before , you had to remove or at least lower the engine away from the frame to gain access to the carburetor.
Changing a jet takes 50 minutes on a , but only 5 minutes on a Bigger Brakes: From to the brake drums were always 90mm diameter. From to the brake drums were mm diameter. So a Tomos can stop faster than a can. The wheel styles changed at different times of the year for different models. Color also changed. See above. In the Sprint and Targa stickers changed slightly. There were no replacement Targa stickers sold by Tomos, because the name Targa was owned by Porsche.
So Targa and Targa LX stickers have always been scarce. The other models continued using the older A35 engine through early Through most of there was no supply, as US EPA laws for on-road undercc vehicles took effect. It became illegal to sell undercc new street motorcycles in the US, made after Jan , unless they were compliant with EPA air pollution testing standards and labeling requirements. Those requirements were so strict that only a handful of two-stroke scooters and mopeds were able to comply.
Tomos developed the A55 clean burning moped engine to meet these US clean air standards, as well as other countries like Switzerland. Early A55 Idling Problem — Stumbles after a long red light: It took awhile to get some idling problems solved. During early , Tomos sent free replacement intake manifolds and other things as a kit to dealers for each A55 bike that needed it.
The new rubber and steel intake pipes had a constant diameter, while the old ones had two steps where the diameter changed suddenly. While there were a few Sprints, made at the end of , there may not have been any ST or LX made at all.
B1 Tomos Sprint pedal, black black aluminum wheels. It weighs in at 57kg and it'll do more than miles to the gallon. You can ride it on a driver's licence if you passed before — otherwise you will need to pass your CBT and be over It's sturdily built, as if it has every intention of being here in another 60 years.
It's Tomos the tank engine. I have never been on a vehicle that has provoked such goodwill from my fellow road users. It turned my seven-mile commute into a sea of waves, grins, thumbs-up signs and marriage proposals… not quite, but you get the picture. When I got home I thought I'd better wheel it through to the back garden for its own security, but then — brimming with joie de vivre — I decided to ride it through the house, round the kitchen, down the back steps on to the patio and across the garden.
Yee-haaing all the way. Adult behaviour? No, it must have been the Tomos factor. For more information, go to tomosgb.
Earlier this summer, Mini unveiled three unique camping concepts which are designed to appeal to people who enjoy the outdoors, from festival goers to campers alike. The Clubvan Camper is the world's smallest luxury camper van; the Cowley is a compact yet comfortable caravan for two people, equipped with a twin-ring gas stove, fridge and sink; and the Countryman ALL4 Camp with its innovative roof-top tent is the getaway car for an adventurous couple.
All are just concepts at the moment, but as you can see from this picture, they'd be a brilliant addition to the Mini line-up.
Last week I reviewed the new F-Type from Jaguar , but almost all the emails I received were from people very happy to linger a little longer on the legendary E-Type. Here's one typical letter from Mark Styring, which sums up how we all felt about the old car:. Hello Martin, I enjoyed your article on the F-Type, but I really do feel you should have compared it with the competition, rather than with the incomparable E-Type.
The cars were, after all, conceived 50 years apart. I was just too lazy to use them for anything but kickstarting the bike and resting my feet while riding. Had my 1. Pedaling, the ST goes only 8 mph. Shockingly, the Tomos ST can haul people pounds heavier. When I first got on the Tomos, I felt far more trepidation than I have on bikes with 80 times the horsepower.
The key to riding a moped: Defer to higher-powered vehicles and act more like a bicyclist than a motorcyclist. The first time I rode the Tomos it was from Orange County to my house 27 miles away. Believe me, few things look less cool in lowrider land than a perky Slovenian moped ridden by a woman wearing leather and a full-face helmet. Few things are less comfortable either. The Tomos ST has a telescopic fork in front and double shocks in the back, but long trips and occasional dips over manhole covers were torture.
It was dusk as I wheeled through Boyle Heights.
