One of big names in the 50cc history is Jugoslavian Tomos.
TOMOS: Tovarna Motora Sezana was named after the first factory/ manufacturer placed in the
village of Sezana (Slowenien)built after 1945, but because of an unsettled borderline against Italy, it was
feared that also Koper, was becomming an Italian city. But it was clear that Tito oriented himself towards the west and thus the borderline against Italy was determined
in 1953. In 1954 the Tomos factory was relocated to Kopar, due to its attractive location and effective harbour
making exports easier.
Tomos participated in the first season (euro-cup 61), taking a win at Hockenheim.
From then on an evolution of 50cc racebikes, all designated D = dirkalni (racer),
made a strong presence in both national and international championships.
