The effects of belt wear and how to test on scooter

@lastairhead 11ヶ月前

What causes the jitter when you depart when cold trasmission? I replaced belt amd variator and still jitters in the morning.

I have the same top per variator kit on my prebug. Bought it a few months ago and i commute 10 miles a day 5 days a week. Looks fine for now but i def have to try out that sharpie trick!

Makes sense I bought a used scooter 700 miles on it. It gets to 55 mph when I first test drove it. Now it's going 45 mph 50 if pushed and it's lunging. Not a steady consistent pull.

I gained 8mph swapping out for a new one. Keep in mind when you install diff width belts you need to shim your variator

Pls, help! I was playing with the roller weights. Went with heavier first. Everything was ok, but the scoot was slower. Went with a bit lighter expecting good results and the loud squealing from the variator started. Could the worn belt be the cause? It is 18,5mm nominal, but 17,5mm measured.

What does it mean when I’m constantly hearing the belt slap the tav cover? It’s worse at certain rpms, but a few spots i stops.

I changed my stock variator to st6 pro race variator. So i was running with stock belt and it was just revving hight but gaining like 10kmh with wide open..the belt was very tight and pretty deep in the back variator so i just ordered malossi special belt. Hope it starts working. Hope you will answer to this!

My 49cc scooter keeps braking the belts, do you have any idea why belts keep breaking. It use 669 18 30 belts but after like a week or so it breaks. The variator and clutch is fine but just the belts keep breaking. So frustrating. Any tips?

I have a gy6 125 scoter i changed the variator and belt cause they were really wornn and i lost a lot of power and top speed was 90kmh now it doesn't go pass 70 it has 12 gram rolers in it in take of the engine doesn't rev that high and its struggling with uphils

I live in europe and our scooters are limited to 28 mph (45kmh). Could a bad/worn belt and roller weight make the engine rev more and cause worse gas mileage? Because that is what i'm experiencing.
