  • How is Power constant... ? Your engine runs at a single speed? I comment what your doing dude, but your word bumbling and wrong information helps nobody. NB Racing

  • You know, this is a stupid idiot design for a variable transmission... instead of making it automatic by using weights and a ramp plate, they should of made it manual with a brake line like steel cable to push it outward and inward, attached to the handle bars, or to the throttle.  To ride, you'd rev the engine to optimal torque, and use your variable transmision level to have a full range of speeds instead of just two.

  • hey i have a brand new belt and it flipped over i dont know how....do u have anyclue how that could have happend?...i was thinking mayb i didnt break it in correctly

  • would changeing my weights help give me more torque? because top speed isnt a concern for me but climbing hills is.

    any help would be apreseated

  • awesome video :)

    

  • Thank you.. I now feel dumber..

  • If you have a longer pulley boss, and a longer rear pulley, the top speed will fall, as the belt sits lower on the front end, and the outer pulley sits further from the engine.

  • Even when I change shovel heavy weight is not the solotion to good acceleration im my scooter?

  • should i put greese on the inside and outside the pully boss? my variator2000 froze up after 600 miles. i had no greese on the new part plus the pully boss hollowed out the variator that it sits in and the copper housing it goes into cracked and became loose. then it froze up the nut on the drive shaft and scourd off the threads on the end of the drive shaft now i have to get a new crank etc.

  • thanks a lot for your video! It helped a lot!

  • from what i no, heavy weight = fast from stopped but lower top speed, light weights = slow start but a faster top speed, so to get the highest top speed should i get the lightest weight possible?

  • @mawer08dude YOU ARE RIGHT AND WRONG. what you say is exactly correct, but you have to remember the engine powerband. Lighter weights may rev the engine faster, but you could get to top speed at 30mph. THe moped has two gears, low and high. you want the weights to keep the best speed in low gear and then shift smooth to high gear. Your weight and engine will determine whats best and you may change the variator weights a dozen times. RH DSD

  • @DIOSpeedDemon so would i need 3 weights for low speed then the other 3 for high speed?

  • @DIOSpeedDemon my scooter is yamaha mio 115 what combination of grams do i use?

    its only stock...

  • @MrShiro05 You have to change the gram weights according to your body weight, bike power and riding style. I have never heard of a mio 115 as they dont sell them here. Start with all 9 gram weights and change three weights to tens or 8's and see what happens. It take alot of experimenting to get the right weights for your power range. RHDSD

  • @DIOSpeedDemon okay thanks dude...

  • @DIOSpeedDemon hey my yamaha mio variator or v-belt is making a noise what would i do to make it sillent pls help thanks....

  • @MrShiro05 im from the philippines and we have a lot of mio's here and im an owner to. my mio is 150cc. bu when my mio is stock i used 6g and 9g it good in acceleration and topspeed try it. the ordinary mio stock roller ball is straight 12g ...

  • ei! DSD good day,have you tried using pulley sliders on your variator?

  • @bubot17 I have not tried those but they look cool. I should buy a set in a 8 or 9 gram and range and make a few videos of them. I will eventually and of course I will put them on you tube. Great advice thanks.

  • @DIOSpeedDemon i also haven't tried them yet,but i'm hearing good feedback from around the net,i'll try it as soon as i find a set :)

  • @bubot17 I see them on ebay under, "honda dio" listing all the time. A bit expensive but great if they work.

  • Thanks a lot for leaving the music out of this video. I have learned a lot from your demo here. Thanks for posting.

  • It's a carnival ride called a merry go round or carousel, but you knew that....

  • VTcycles Said DON'T us any lubricant or dry graphite on the aftermarket VARIATORS there meant to be run DRY .

    like he said it will only get all over belt and pulleys they as me to kindly let you know so no one is making this mistake!!!!!!!!!!

  • I have a 1987 Honda elite 50 it has 600 miles on it and I want it to go 10 miles an hour faster what would be the cheapest way to do that ?

  • hello  do you kno if the sh scoop 50 has the dio engine ?

  • i found your explanation of how variators work quite difficult to understand

  • FOR 100 DOLLARS, I will do it again if you like.

  • when the angle is more is that more pick up while less angle more top speed?

  • IF the angle is steeper on the ramp plate, the belt rises to top of the variator very quickly, which then goes from low to high speed. Some people want more low end for take off and not as much high end. It is all a trade off. This is only the quest to fine tune the transmission for your particular riding style. RH DSD

  • Comment removed

  • im first you loosers muahaha

  • rendy this are called cvt transmissions (constant velocity transmission) because the engine is accelerating the bike and has all the time a constant rpm

  • you mean constantly Variable transmission, because the gear ratios attainable are infinite between the min and max pulley sizes.

    and yes the engine maintains peak power through said ratios.

  • that transmission that you mean is a mechanical transmission that is not used by a scooter. The pully sizes in a variator are constant they are not infinite and the only real thing about the pullys is the weight that is important and regulates the speed of opening the variator. The constant velocity transmission is a transmission that gives the engine a constant rpm so it jumps the low rpm-s to ensure the power ratio of the engine. Also dont copy the shit out of wikipedia its b-shit read books

  • Oh I see =D

    but the pulleys in a variator have to vary though as far as the width of the interior goes, so the belt can ride high or low just like if you had a tall gear or small gear.

    I thought the engine rpms stays the same and the gear ratios is is constantly varying, to allow a higher speed output to occur and peak engine torque.

    I guess it is similar to a constantly varying transmission but not quite =(

    thanks =)

  • This is very close to what I meant, i just forgot. RH DSD

  • the diference between a constant velocity transmission and a constantly Variable transmission is the belt. the belt in a constant velocity transmission alows streching and the belt in the variable belt is not strechy. The variable transmissoin is build in smaller size engines because they have not so much power and the belt streches a bit to alow higher rpms when you go up a hill or need more power at the start. the other system is build in in larger engine sizes (400cc+)

  • Engine power is constant to 12,000 rpm. The trick is to tune the first and second gear to be the most favorable in getting power to the rear wheel. I know what I mean, I just know I am not saying it right.

  • you are the man.
