Well as an update, I installed the blue (1K) contra spring and three 9g rollers. I also cleaned the inside of the clutch bell and scuffed the clutch shoes until they weren't shiny anymore. I regreased everything inside the torque driver and...
WHAMMO! This scoot is ALIVE! Pulls so freakin' hard off the line, wheelies are incredible and sometimes scary and I cruise even faster! 46mph upright cruising speed. I got a 53mph top speed so far. Holy hell. I'm ordering 4g sliders to try those out, my 5g are just a little too heavy for the blue spring. Also, I am using the shorter drive boss in the variator and yellow clutch springs.
Still, the belt is okay, and does show signs of wear, but it's not looking like it'll break anytime soon so I'm gonna run with it.

Just to center the variator belt.

Just to center the variator belt. By using a shorter boss, one does not off-set the belt-line. It's one millimeter shorter. Think of the angle of the drive face and variator face: if the faces move inwards, either the drive face or variator, the belt is naturally going to rest higher in the "v" that the faces make. If anything is put behind the variator ramp plate, it will case the variator to be pushed in, closing the "v" a little more, causing the belt to ride even higher.

Front half-pulley is moving closer to the engine. You have to compensate the difference. Maybe small angle chances won't matter, but better to be safe than sorry.

I would think given the gearing, the starter would be rather hard to rotate by having the bendix rubbing the belt, I would expect it to just rip the belt to shreds ultimately.

I had that exact same issue when I was using a Koso variator and it will eventually destroy the belt.
If you're into maximum performance, you could remove the starter and the bendix and just kick start it.

I run my CVT with no cover. I know, I know I risk the case cracking. So, kick starting is not an option. But, I was kick starting a while back, when I first did the motor swap, and the dang kick arm never retracts back smoothly and sometimes it skips when kicking. Is there a how-to install all the parts on the case the correct way?

I have this exact thing going on with mine right now. i have a ring that goes around the belt and i can totally feel it rubbing at wot. im using a performance variator and a 729 bando belt. im gonna try a 723 belt and see if that help. i wish there was more space in between the case and the belt like on 150cc. its so dam close on the 50cc's. do you guys think it is for sure the bendix rubbing? im using sliders as well. im gonna try some shims as well.
