| Sachs Prima G3 - by
Joseph E.
I`m the luckiest guy ever. You folks are gonna hate me. I`m 17, at my high school, my mechanics teacher had this old moped just sitting on top of this like, work bench. It was always just there, never even got touched. So I asked him how much he would take for it. He said, `man that thangs been up there for 3 years already.` he said it was given to him as a project but he has a 69 mustang gt and a 71 trans am, those are projects! ;) Anyways, he didn`t answer my question and I left, but the next week he asked me, `hey are you still wanting that moped?` I said hell yeah! He told me `go on and take it. It`s taking up space` I asked `for free?!` He said, `well I would like about 20 bucks, for a 24 pack.`.... yup.....I bought a 1980 Sachs Prima G3, WITH 53 MILES ON IT!!! for a pack of fuckin beer!!!! I took it home, assembled the seat back and everything cleaned it thoroughly. Looked brand new! Problem was, like he said, didn`t run. BUT, I took it to my dads neighbor, all it took was a (complimentary) carb rebuild. Ran like a champ!!! Sure enough, he was sad when I went to pick it up. He drove it as much as he could. This little machine turns heads EVERYWHERE! and I get the same question, `is it a bike or a motorcycle?!` hahaha. Spedometer goes up to 40mph, I`ve reached 37 on a downhill. :) 25 on flat. Smooth beautiful cruiser. Sad story: I let my sister`s 26 year old boyfriend keep it at their house for a week, just to spread the joy. I regret it. :/ him and his friend took it mudding!!! Jumping mud ramps. Treating it like shit! A FUCKING, RARE ASS, COLLECTERS moped!!!!! They broke the chain guard, dented the gas tank, got it muddy for it`s first time in 30 years. Sure enough, I`m not ever leaving anything valuable to an inconsiderate childish person again. | |||||

The Bikes themselves are great, I have 3 with 10,000 miles each, which is the drop dead point. No major problems on any of them until 10K. Tomos USA and Doug Joseph SUCK. I wanted to buy a new bike in 2009, before all my bikes reached 10K miles. Because of shit head DJ, no new 2009 Tomos Mopeds were available. I`ve spent nearly as much in parts to fix my 2008 as it would cost to buy a 2009, IF IT WERE AVAILABLE. I WOULD HAVE BOUGHT THE NEW 2009, IF IT WERE AVAILABLE. FUCK YOU DOUG JOSEPH. YOU ARE WHAT IS WRONG WITH TOMOS USA. | |||||

| Columbia commuter - by
bob
i have a columbia commuter and i was trying to get it to go a little bit faster, when i started to mess with the air intake and i found a restrictor plate i took it out it made it go 5 mph faster(25),then i drilled some holes in the airbox and that gave it a little more torque. hope you can use these and have fun:) |
