Do I have these O-rings placed properly? The black one is causing the spring seat sleeve to rest a little high, which is part of the problem. Do I have them backward or something? Just read through all of the instructions again and the O-rings are never mentioned. High end scooter parts instructions (or lack thereof) really bother me lol.  |

That is the proper o-ring configuration. I shaved a bit off of the top of my TD cover to get it level.

I think that's the problem then. I'll try sanding mine down a bit tonight and that may alleviate the issue completely. I may still need to use on of the shims, but will have to sand that down to a pretty thin thickness. Man... I've tried to buy about three belt sanders off of FB marketplace in the past few days and none of them have worked out. Would be really nice right now... lol

Yes, that's what I cut down. Sometimes I cut down that and the TD and/or the seal. Whatever is needed. Just have to be careful and can't take any of them too far.

Makes me nervous when I start grinding away on part of a kit that costs $400+, so I just wanna be sure.
Thank you

Seems like I get two hours or so a day at most and sometimes none to get any work done on this thing. Spent a majority of my time today trying to straighten out the rear pulley/clutch bell spacing, sanding parts down, and trimming the case to fit the OR belt better. I sanded about a half inch or so off of the rear pulley sleeve and sanded down the spacer 90GTVert sent me to about 0.6mm to get full travel on the rear pulley. Looks pretty good now.  Now the only problem with the CVT is that I'm now left with not a ton of threads for the clutch bell nut to grab onto because I had to add more spacers inside the pulley and onto the primary shaft to give extra clearance for the large rear pulley nut that now sits a little proud. I think I will sand down the large rear pulley nut now to alleviate the issue. It's right at the minimum of where I'm comfortable thread wise.   I put a 34PJ in the carb and I'm right at about 1-1.5 turns out on the air/fuel screw, so I think I will stick with that for now. I get a pretty bad bog if I twist the throttle wide open from a stand still. I didn't think to cover the air box intake a little and see if it clears up, but I think it's a rich bog. I'll probably try and 80MJ or maybe raise the needle actually... 80MJ sounds like it should be getting lean, so yeah, I'll try raising the needle first. At any rate, the carb is coming along and so are other odds and ends and I will be able to do some CVT work soon. I've got it up to the low 50mph range, so I'm guessing with a good CVT tune, I should be able to get close to 60mph or better hopefully. |

If I want to convert to a gravity fed fuel system rather than vacuum, can I just remove the diaphragm from my petcock and cap off the vacuum inlet/outlet on the petcock/carb?

So here it is as it sits now and a pic the dude I bought it from sent me before I came to look at it.    I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, but still have a few things to do. I'm going to vent the CVT cover and paint it. I'll probably do a naked bar setup at some point and am still in search of 100cc Aerox wheels. All in all, I'm happy though. Been ripping around town for an hour or so and went for a ride with the girlfriend earlier. I can feel the cylinder starting to settle in a bit. I finally got the carb dialed in good enough. Here's my current carb tune: 34PJ 84MJ 2nd clip from top Air screw ~1.5 turns out I get a small amount of sputter when going down hill and once in a while at part throttle, but 93% of the time very clean throttle response and it starts on the first kick with no choke to a smooth idle. The CVT is my next and hopefully final hurdle for the time being. I'll have to open it and get some pics of the marker leftover on the variator, but long story short, I'm maxing out at ~49mph/79kph around 11k rpm. It feels like it wants to go faster and I feel like it should too. Earlier on the same setup as below except for 5.5gr rollers and no clutch spring tension, the entire marker line was gone. Here's my current CVT tune: 6gr roller White contra Medium clutch springs ~50% tightened. Engaging ~6,250k rpm No bushing shims  |

Looks sweet like the orange and white . Thank you! I can't wait to get some different wheels and vent and paint that CVT cover too. |

Anyone that can point me in the right direction to get more speed out of my CVT would be greatly appreciated.
I'm thinking longer belt and then go from there?
