no not normal you clutch is slipping. The pads are hopefully just glazed and if so you can get some more milage out of the pads. Take the bell off and if glazed sandpaper the glaze off the pads and you good for a few more miles of no chatter. Alleyoop

scoot, Alleyoop thanks, the clutch is new less than 600 miles but I'll deglaze it as you recommend.but could the problem also be the wrong weights.I don't know the exact weights I'm running now, but when I tear it down to deglaze the clutch I'll weigh them (I how have a gram scale) and can let you know thanks again for your help. scoot, Alleyoop

how are your rpms if they are very low starting off then the weights may be to heavy and not allowing the motor to produce high rpms. But if you have good rpms starting off then it is just the clutch and not the weights. The weights would have to be on the very heavy side to create a starting off problem effecting the rpms.

scoot, Alleyoop FOUND THE PROBLEM,took the cvt apart to degalaze the clutch and weigh the rollers found little or no glaze,but after inspecting the rollers I found most of them had flat spots on them .lucky I had a good used set from a friends scooter that up graded to siders same weight 12grams put them in no more chater .thanks for your help I probable won't have gone that far into the cvt with out your suggestion.one more ? does the 12gram rollers sound about right.its a 150cc scooter and I'm about 195lbs.thanks again.
