Sorry to hear about your aunt . I think u have 4200 kilometers on your scooter which would = 2609 miles ,not 4200 miles . The outside of your speedometer is reading kilometers.

I agree with everyone ,I think the needle is not setting for some reason . When I always work on carbs with rubber tip needles I always clean and lube the rubber tip with silicone spray lube . It works very for cleaning and conditioning the rubber tip .

But it was perfect that very first night I got it Al . I had been across town and back almost home and the belt broke . There is a good size hill on the way to my brothers house zip zip right over the hill , belt broke ever since zip zip is gone. It's great on the top end , take off and hills are a shame . It's no low end power .

Yes the belt shredded and I replaced the variator because it had some cooling fins broke and I completely took the clutch apart and cleaned the belt pieces from there too. The scooter starts to move at about 2000-2500 rpms . The variator and weights and the belt is all that has been changed . The big clutch springe is the same.

I thought the 842-20-30 and the 835-20-30 belts would interchange .

My scooter still does not have the take-off power that I think it should have . I have the gy6 long case set up and I'm running the shorter belt , I forget the size ,but it is the shorter belt. I started with a 13g weight it wouldn't even spin a tire on wet grass ,know I have a 11g weight it has helped very little if any . When I look at some of the variator kits I see shims in the kits . What part does these shims play ? My belt does not set all the way on the top of the clutch pulley . It sets about 1/8 to a 1/4 in deep in the clutch pulley . Am I losing the low end power because of this ? Or do I need some of the shims to make the belt set right in the bottom of variator next to the boss ? I bought the scooter used and on the very first ride the belt broke in to pieces and things have not been the same since ,before the belt broke it had great power . Thanks for any help.

I view the forum a lot on my iPad . My iPad wanted me to install the Proboard App . I really do not like the app or maybe I don't understand how it works . Is there others that use the app that can share their ideals or thoughts on how it works ?
