Thanks a lot Luke!!! This info will really help this weekend. Too busy during the week now. I'm almost sure this is where the noise is coming from as I here the noise more as I ride. Did you use your impact wrench to remove the transmission or do you have the Yamaha tool? I have an impact wrench and a strap that I use on my other scooters. Is there any reason you don't use Dr. Pulley sliders? If I decide to go with Dr. Pulley, what is the original weights of the sliders, so I can decrease a little for better take off. The Morphous take off is good (maybe after transmission maintenance it would be better) but I have a Helix that take off speed is much better. Does you Morphous wheels turn fast while on the stand. It is not an issue standing still but the rotation speed is above normal for my other scooters? I may post a video link.
Thanks for the side switch pointer. I think I may use since it is so simple. The Helix side stand adjustment is a little more complicated.

Thanks Luke. I have the service manual but I can't find the size of the rollers in grams. I see the specs for the diameter check but can't find the OEM rollers gram size. Since you're weighing your rollers, what is the original gram weight?
Since I have to replace the belt, I think I want to try Dr. Pulley sliders where I would buy a gram or 2 lighter. The scooter has over $12k miles and the take off is not what I expect but top end is find.

Just finish the Morphous install of belt and Dr. Pulley sliders today. Thanks Luke for all the help. The 13g sliders gives me a quicker take off but took several miles off the top end. Ordered some 14g to mix with four of the 13g. I hope that does the trick

I had to change the Dr. Pulleys back to OEM rollers as they rattle to much on deceleration. I took the Morphous on a 1000 mile in 24 hours Iron Butt qualification on the way to Amerivespa in San Diego. rowdycsdtrip.blogspot.com/. I completed the Iron Butt on a 250cc scooter using back roads and no interstate. On the way back home we took a couple hundred miles on the interstate and it still held up well. Full throttle most of the entire round trip. While I was at Amerivespa, guess who shows up. Luke on his Morphous. It was a pleasure to actually meet the person who help me get my scooter CVT right.
