Yes, i have had a Tomos Nitro 150 in my possession for three years. It now has 3,200 miles on it. It has been totally trouble free so far. Has never failed to start. Still has original battery. Has only had normal maintenance done on it.
At least 95% of the miles have been put on it with two people on board. I rode it on the Tail of the Dragon, over the Smoky mountains, the Blue Ridge Pky and all over down there. At any altitude, in any temperature, rain or shine, it has not missed a beat.
I was very skeptical about Tomos Scooters at first, but i am sold now. I love this Scooter more each time I ride it.
And unlike most of the Chinese scooters out there, Tomos does have most of the parts for their scooters, including the plastic and they have service manuals for them.
The only problem i have had is with the fuel gage. It is flakey. When you fill the tank it stays on empty and later it will go to full and stay there til it half empty again. I could replace the sending unit and fix that if i wasn`t
so lazy.
Again, if all Tomos Scooters are as good as this one has been, and considering the cost, parts and service, from a company that has been here for over 50 years, I would put a Tomos against any chinese scooter on the market.
I never thought i would ever say that , but its true
