Another video showing spoiled kids ruining a well build moped throught stupidity... Not even wearing a helmet, great example to show off to all the kids who read this forum on a day-to-day basis... This type of crap isn't funny or entertaining, its just plain dumb.

Dude that video's awesome. hahahahaha i want to make a super mopard tomos, and jump the **** out of it as well as slide it on tracks. how'd the suspension end up at the end of hte day?

The frame bent after about 10 big jumps but we fixed that. We replaced the rear shocks with ones from a golf cart to increase payload and make the jumps alot softer and more fun. Oh yeah its also ported and polished with a small piston skirt shave.

Sorry pal, but common sense says jumping a moped without a helmet is a stupid thing to do and sets a bad example for others.

My brother's best friend is in a wheelchair from crashing his dirtbike while taking a simple jump, nothing fancy... Now he can't even wipe his own ass.

Do what you want... Its a free country... I just don't happen to agree with you on this.

hey, in their defense, i saw them wearing a helmet when the jumps started getting serious.

not wearing a helmet isn't a good idea, but honestly when you're jumping you have a greater risk of breaking your back / legs / ankles / collarbone / ribs/ pretty much everything. gear up if you can, lol.

Not too smart.. Got brains?

tomos_chopper · 12-01-09, 01:54 PM

my suggestion dont jump and take any risk with moped,it is not designed for jumping,i have tomos cross ATX and i dont jump with it,its 20yrs old...keep it to last longer,and drive safely to protect yourself and other people in traffic...and that hip-hop video is nice...here is obligate to wear helmet...

Jerry · 12-28-09, 05:38 AM

Stupid morons. Mopeds are not made for jumping. In their case, I really don't think a helmet is necessary, any additional brain damage shouldn't really make any difference. I sure feel sorry for the moped though.

I do my jumping on a Honda XR400, wearing a helmet and full protective gear. And yeah, I've gone down a few times, but never any serious injuries or serious damage to the bike.

These idiots should get the Darwinism award of the year. Jerry.

Good to see your back... where have you been?

you too lance.

All over. I retired at 50 on March 31st, '09. Right now I am building a chopper out of an '04 Honda Rebel 250 in my living room. Just got the frame back from the builder. Front forks will have 45 degrees of rake. Jerry.
