FAQs
Does this kit include the drive belt?
No, the kit typically includes the variator assembly and two sets of rollers. You may need to purchase a compatible drive belt separately.
Can I mix the roller weights?
It is generally recommended to use a uniform set of weights to prevent uneven wear on the variator ramp plate.
Do I need to change my clutch spring?
While not strictly required, upgrading the torque spring is often recommended to complement the variator's performance characteristics.
How often should I inspect the rollers?
It is good practice to inspect the rollers for flat spots every 2,000 to 3,000 miles to ensure consistent performance.
Will this fit all scooter models?
This part is specific to certain configurations. Please verify your scooter engine and transmission compatibility with MPN 241.719 before purchase.
Troubleshooting
Engine revs too high but acceleration is slow
The installed rollers are too light; switch to the heavier 22g set to lower the RPMs.
Scooter feels sluggish on takeoff
The rollers may be too heavy or the variator is not shifting correctly; try the 17g rollers to increase takeoff responsiveness.
Excessive vibration or noise
Check that the variator nut is torqued to manufacturer specifications and ensure the roller weights are seated correctly in their ramps.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation should be performed by someone familiar with CVT transmission systems. Proper installation requires a variator holding tool to safely remove the stock components. When installing the Polini Hi-Speed Evolution, ensure the ramp plate and housing are cleaned of debris and lightly lubricated with appropriate high-temperature grease where specified. Check the condition of your drive belt at the same time, as a worn belt can cause slippage that negates the variator's benefits. Regular maintenance involves inspecting the roller weights every 2,000 to 3,000 miles for flat spots and cleaning out accumulated belt dust.
