POLINI241.626 - P241626 - High Speed Variator for the Honda Ruckus or Metropolitan 50cc scooter

So I want my Ruckus faster and this seems to be the number one thing people recommendSo... add to cart / purchased and days later I got it.INSTALL : Install was easy, I did mine with a replacement thinner stronger belt so I had to take the clutch out. The Variator bolt needed a impact gun and worked great. This part is like level 3 out of 10. You do need an impact gun or the tool to hold the wheel so you can remove it.RESULT: I am running with JUST the 5.6 rollers and I am up to about 42 hitting the rev limit. Max before was 38. I mixed the heaver with the lighter and not an improvement in my result. I purchased some 5 gram rollers and I will try that. Im expecting an increase in top speed.SUGGESTIONS: Get a new Kevlar belt (Polini brand if you want to match) , and purchase some 5 gram rollers also. Get use to opening and closing the housing for your CVT because you will try different weight combinations. Write down results on , change em and try again.

Easy to install. Definitely increase speed and acceleration. In my case it was very noticable ( i had some moisture damage from previous owner that let the scooter sit for many years and had alot of pitting on the variator drive face and the rollers didnt roll very smooth). I would definitely recommend.

Works good

It was easy to install and definitely made my ride smoother, faster and better acceleration. I had my doubts but definitely made a big impact on my ride

The claim of 48 miles an hour on the metropolitan is pretty far fetched. You have to be going down hill and have plenty of build up for that. Also the heavier gram weights kill the acceleration. I mean it’s a very noticeable difference. I recommend the lighter weights. As for the quality, super high quality parts. And work great to replace the worn out components
