Alas...no.

The Golden Bullet has the A3 engine (Bullet, Silver Bullet, Golden Bullet).

The kit is only compatible with the A5 engine (Targa, Sprint)

The A3 engine is, however...in my opinion far more reliable, and with a BiTurbo, Carb and Sprocket upgrade, phenomenal in it's performance, pound for pound.

And those WILL fit.

Around 45-50Mph, with all the mods and good tuning.

You wouldn't really want more than that, cause the brakes, tires, etc - won't handle it...in fact most mopeds "crab-drift" towards chainside due to single-chain drive at speeds like that.

Fun as hell, tho.

Ree, what kind of carb

What kind of carb did you use in your tomos? I have a 80 bullet and want to get it to go a bit faster.

tom king

Kind doesn't matter nearly so much as size.

(yes folks,. size DOES matter...umm, heh.)

I think the stock carb for a Tomos is usually a 12mm DelLorto.

I did like the old Encarwi, due to it's simplicity of design, but it's hard to find parts and jets for the damn thing now, so most folks go with Amal.

About 15mm usually does the trick, and reccommended is somehow increasing the airflow to it, especially if you are jetting it on the heavy side.

You also might need a different, or larger...whatever the hell that is that goes from the carb to the cylinder, that widget.

I have seen one Tomos with a Mikuni, and if I see the guy again I shall ask him about it, but most folks go with the Amal, that being commonly available - as well I do think DelLorto goes up to 14mm, tho not sure on that last one.

Enjoy !
