Technical Advice
Tomos
Information
you do have a torch and welder, right? The Exhaust on this bike did not line up perfect, and I had to heat it up on the head pipe a bit to bend it up so the rear mount would line up just right. 
bolt the head pipe on first for best sealing

I have welded the pipe solid rather than using the supplied clamp. 
put the slide in on the locating pin correctly, or be sad

The throttle cablr goes thru the spring, then the washer, then the slide.
carb bowl rubs here, so file it down a bit

The bigger carb bowl touches on the engine block where the serial number plate is.   I ground it off with a file so the carb would sit straight on the manifold. 
buy clean fuel, keep it clean Install the new fuel line, no kinking out!
The choke lever goes by the horn button The new choke lever is installed on the handlbars 
It's a SLEEPER!  Premix or did you hook up the oil injector line? 
A firm tap.  Hit it like you mean it, don't peen it over with tap tap tap tap tap To change the sprocket, Loosen the nut on the cotter, hit a soft hammer with another hammer to loosen the tapered pin, leave the nut on to help prevent distorting the threads.
Don't lose the little spacer under the cotter nut! Have all these parts ?
inspect the little dowel pins, be aware of them loosen the holding tab on the nut, nut is right  hand thread.
flatten the lock tab Hook the wrench on, and spin the rear tire by hand to loosen nut.
or a deep socket, it is a right hand thread. Move the wheel forward to loosen the chain, then swap the sprocket.  A small amount of trimming may be required to clear the case when using larger sprockets.  Yo can trim the cas with a file, or a dremel tool type grinder.
is the chain rubbing? Line up the tang on the lockwasher when reinstalling, tighten nut firmly. Fold over lock tab washer.
bleeding yet? The point between the flywheel and the sprocket is where it will touch.
a little more filing.... Trim this section of the outer case to, or you won't be able to get it back on without the chain rubbing.
fire it up! Don't forget the oil pump drive washer! Be carefull aligning the oil pump drive.              Adjust the rear drive chain and rear brakes.
After breaking in for 30-40 miles, I wound it out with my freind following me in her car to check the speed. I got it up to 50 mph even.   The Tomos will cruise at 40 easily.
NOTE: Adding any of these parts will void your warranty
