Links for the parts used in the video? Would love to find that headlight for my 2001 Targa restoration project!

I'm in the middle of something similar on my Maxi/magnum Hybrid.just chopped the rear fender. put the Magnum front forks on and the magnum swing arm on the maxi frame about a 1 3/4 inch lift over the maxi height... engine rebuilt 64cc polini/Biturbo exhaust.Now for the electrics replaced the 6V lighting coil with a 12 volt coil. tore out the original wiring harness and am building a new harness for 12 volts DC with a Rectifier/Regulator no battery. all LED lighting with a LED directional circuit. Similar drectionals like you have, brought my LED brake light up higher right under the rack.lowered the seat 1 3/8ths inches to hug the rack.LED H4 headlight super bright with a high beam. speedo light changed to LED.Yamaha dirt bike bars just about a inch taller than yours.new brackets for a Cafe racer type fairing with wind screen.I'm thinking of shortening my front fender as well make it look more like yours.going to blackout all the chrome the rack under the seat, foot bars, and front fender all black. it should look nice against the bright Yellow frame.

Hey! What headlight was used. Want one for my Tomos in the UK 🇬🇧

Finally looking at mopeds and I am aiming for a Tomos. It's nice to see the video's are still as good as ever. I'd love to see rack options for the Tomos which allows it to carry delivery cooler box bags for Uber Eats. When I think of commuting, I think of packability.

TOMOS is the best choice. The rack you required will have to be made though. All the factory racks are simple and not designed for heavy loads.

Hi, thanks for the video/info. I looked on your website for the taillight you used in this video, but only found the Sprint taillight holder. Is that what you used, along with a sprint light assembly? I can’t find anything smaller with that fender angle on bottom. I want to shorten my rear fender and do what you did here. Please let me know, thanks

@MopedProblems

Yes, that tail light holder on the website is the one. Unfortunately, the tail light that mounts to it is out of stock. There is an alternative tail light that needs a little modification, on treatland.tv

Thanks for the praise! It’s hard to help via comments but have you added an LED style flasher? LED lights draw little power and a different flasher is needed for it to work right.

Great video! I have recently begun to try and service my Tomos A35. And i need to get the left engine cover off, it seems that i have remove the tubes from the oil pump, since the tubes go through a small hole into the behind of the left engine cover. I can't put the engine cover back on now anymore, because the flywheel is not alligned, so i gotta have it off. Also i would like to clean it up in there. If u ever see this, would u consider making a vid about how to remove the oil pump correctly without deleting it? xD Or just a helpful article, i would like to try to go about it myself. I think my biggest challenge is the clamps that holds the tubes on the oil pump. I would like to service the oil pump as well. Hope hearing from you! Currently no vids about servicing the oil injection can be found and information is scarse. :(

Awesome

Where can I buy the fender and rear light

Where did you get that tail light/bracket?

With gas prices so high and my commute being 43 miles there and back I really could use one of these brand new

Big lights save lives...embrace them.

Any tips on setting up turn signals? I bought a tomos that was optimized for racing so only the headlight and tail light works. Would love some advice so it's a bit less illegal come summer.

A stock wiring harness is one way to go…. But the wiring is not hard, same hot wire that is used for the headlight… it just goes to the turn signal switch and from there to the left and right turn signals (and from there grounded)

Very Nice!!¡¡¡!!

Hey guys. I’ve got an old tomos targa lx, I love it but it is incredibly loud. Is there a way to silence this thing as much as possible?

@MopedProblems

2 жыл бұрын

It shouldn’t be too loud. I would first check for a head leak. By the header where it meets the cylinder, be sure the exhaust is tight and flush. Also, the gasket there could be blown out. The bike would be significantly louder if its not sealed. If thats good, check the baffle section of the pipe. If it’s missing and the pipe is just a straight pipe, it will be loud. Or maybe the insides of the baffle are gone. Lastly check the airbox. No airbox will make the moped noticeably louder. Best of luck 🤞

If the bracket is too short to bottom out against the inside of the headlight, I slip some rubber tubing around the “legs” of the bracket. Add whatever length you need to make contact.

My guess is the throttle tube is rubbing on the new bars. Either at the very end of the bar (in which case move the throttle assembly a little bit to the right… so the grip isn’t rubbing on the end of the bar). Or, the handlebar is rubbing on the inside of the throttle tube. I’ve seen this on the painted handlebars. You’ll have to sand down or acid remove the paint where the throttle tube is. A little light oil in the throttle tube helps too.
