That was the one thing I didn't like about the 50cc. It seemed to need much more rpm to move than my 150cc.

Even the larger scooters kick in AT 2,2. My Silver Wing does also as my Reflex is the same. The Magnum was a little higher I think, but had no teach on it.

I guess it has to do with the weakness on the contra. Mine is practically brand new and as time goes on it will probably engage sooner.

Check the Clutch Pad springs the clutch may have come with stronger springs. The stronger the clutch pad springs are the more centrifugal force is required to get the pads to be thrown out and grab the bell, so higher RPMS are required. A stronger contra spring all that does is it takes more rpms to open the pulley so the belt drops down to gain speed running at a higher rpms. You can get the wheel to turn having the belt sitting on the edge of the Clutch pulley all you need is very light weights so the belt doesn't climb up the variator and pull the Clutch pulley apart to drop the belt down. The only time your wheel will turn is when the Clutch Pads get thrown out to grab the bell which in turn, turns your wheel. Alleyoop
