"Well Loved" A35 - Let's Make It Run Better (Oil Injection Delete, Timing Check) + Shakedown Ride!

Feeling more solid about the motor on this bike, now it just needs everything else attached to it!
Have you ever had a Tomos crank with a misaligned woodruff key slot? This is the other crank where reviewers have mentioned something similar:

“I was cursing under my breathe.” Yeah I feel you lol I don’t know exactly what I’m doing when I comes to servicing my Tomos so I wish more people did

[@MrChanw11]

I really appreciate the breakdown of the issue, the things you checked, and the fix. This will no doubt be helpful for people learning to troubleshoot their peds.

[@TravisTutorial]

Thank you!

Hey Travis 🖐️ good to see ya again....I'm a fan 👍

[@fractuss]

This is the clearest vid showing use of the Buzetti tool yet, thx.

[@TravisTutorial]

Thanks! I definitely bought it a few years ago before really knowing how to use it - it just paid for itself!

[@RoadRusters]

cool video! about 2 months ago i bought my first moped.,a 85 general 5-star TE with a minarelii v1, i did struggle with spark for a little (stupid tail light) and now i find myself battling the starting clutch but it's coming along nicely. your channel has been a HUGE help to me

[@TravisTutorial]

Aaaah I have done the dance with the brake light wiring on a Safari moped with a Minarelli V1, fun times. Glad it's coming along and that the videos have been helpful!

[@Corn-ped]

Great video! Keep it up!

[@TravisTutorial]

LED Headlight & anti-flicker capacitor from your video going on next!

[@hondahut]

Great video!!!...I agree with you about setting the timing to factory specs...I like your videos

[@TravisTutorial]

Thanks! Yeah the aftermarket crank threw me a bit of a curveball here but we'll get it. Subscribed for the vintage honda mc and vw bus content, love that stuff!

[@philsturkeychasers]

another great video, I'm really enjoying this series! re the bent stand, they bend really easily from starting them.on the stand, in fact all of mine scrape the stand on the road when cornering hard. If you start a Tomos on the stand frequently like I do you, centre stands are basically a consumable item. luckily they are cheap and readily available!

[@TravisTutorial]

Thank you! And yeah I'm definitely scraping around corners, I'm thinking it is time to order a replacement!

[@miguelpagansr6128]

That would be like the set up for the motobecane stock cdi system, they have a tapered shaft and the basically press on just with a light touch of a hammer. Thanks for the video and ride safe. She actually sound awesome.

[@TravisTutorial]

Yes! Many french bikes are timed this way indeed. Thank you I think it is too!

[@bjf10]

A stock tomos with a biturbo! It must go 65 mph, or is that only in New Jersey? ;-) Great video as always Travis!

[@Corn-ped]

Those are real flames on the frame. From doing 65!

[@TravisTutorial]

The paint used on this one wasn't resistant to gas and so it only has flames on the one side now !

[@upsidedowndog1256]

Getting there! Cool KLR. I bought a 2001 with 940 original miles last May.

[@TravisTutorial]

Thanks! And nice a Gen 1 - I love my KLR, single cylinder single carb, bare bones analogue gauges, it is like a big moped!

[@upsidedowndog1256]

@@TravisTutorial In some ways I have to agree. I grew up riding in the 70s and 80s. My first "noped" was a Yamahopper, but my dirtbikes were large and simple like the KLR. I have wanted one since they 1st came out. Biggest difference is my old dirtbikes barely had much more than a suggestion of brakes. The KLR stops much better than they did.

[@TravisTutorial]

@@upsidedowndog1256 Definitely, the difference between disc and drum on a big bike is night and day!

[@Fireflierification]

Hey Travis, really enjoying your vids. I'm trying to do some maintenance on my own A35 and i drained it from oil. I'm thinking to put the oil pump back on. Now would it be ok to premix just with the gas thats already in the tank? It has full tank. Or would i need to drain it? :)

[@imtonedeaf1]

Great video lol didn't yell at the phone one time a phva 14 dellorto very tuneable carb great gas mileage too

[@TravisTutorial]

There was some audio issues on this one, it is probably time for me to upgrade to an actual microphone ha

[@DJMIGHTYZION]

Hi travis I’ve got a puch magnum x I cleaned the carb had a new clutch put in it starts up then when it’s full throttle it Boggs down any ideas please ? Hope you can help as you have great results with the e50 engine 👍

[@Blk3fifde]

Hey man I recently picked up an FMB Yankee peddler, it has motori minarelli motor in it, currently doesn’t run, was wondering if you know anything about them

[@fastbicyclerider7300]

Get a file and make the grond plate more adjustable

[@blakecantrell3441]

Hey have a 1980 tomos bullet moped I have a question about if you know anything about him

[@vintagemopeds2767]

Hi Travis i have the follwing issue, peugeot vogue moped lights blowing any help would be great ive checked the transformer its ok but i am getting 42v from the magnieto and the same at the tail light stop light is also blowing headlamp is ok 6v thanks Johnny

[@TravisTutorial]

We got so very few Vogue imports into the states (I think a few tickled in from Canada but as far as I know it was never sold here). I haven't actually seen one in person! Those are a modern-ish moped I'm surprised there isn't an in-line voltage regulator. I don't want to give out the wrong advice, but if there isn't any sort of existing regulator adding one like the Trail Tech dial a brightness can't hurt: www.treatland.tv/trail-tech-voltage-regulator-p/trail-tech-regulator-7003-ac01.htm

[@ajwasp3642]

If you want to ride mopeds, you gotta buy tools, and learn how to use them. Two-speeds blow. Belts, over wet clutches.
