    I'm sure the oil drive is correct and trawling the internet, they back that up. After all the gear meshes with the oil pump and the basket meshes with the stater pinion too. what doesn't add up is the # 5 slots along the shaft then it's left over a smooth shaft area and becomes loose because of it. I wonder if the inner hub goes on first and then #5 which will take up the slack mentioned. Diagrams have been known to be wrong before!
  2. Tomos were sold by Grattons and kay catalogues I think Woolies sold them too
  3. that's the hard part, waiting for parts. especially when you want to get in it!
  4. Its supposed to be a tune (abhet japanese) I'll get Elvis to rev his bike to a lullaby tune
  5. £1,300 price tag though for a bit of retro http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tomos-Classic-XL-50cc-Moped-Brand-New-in-Stock-/251323313386?pt=UK_Motorcycles&hash=item3a84096cea

    fitted the shim today and all the valves are now in spec. rebuilt the carbs ( they were pretty clean TBH) and just need to set float heights and fit. then sat sort the blinking clutch out after the new springs arrive just had an epiphany moment, the plates all fit on the inner hub and really has nothing to do with the basket at all apart from the fingers slotting in there.
  7. should be great, hope to see you all there
  8. I use an alarm battery on the tracker and so far its held up. not too fussed though as it was only £7
  9. serviced it yet? fuel filter between tank and carb?
  10. USA, where can you street drag in the uk?
  11. handlebar glue? I use hairspray

    I placed the pressure plate to the dot on the basket, but I'll check again when I go back in there and see what's what!
