Scooter variator - operation principle

Here is a small example of how it works. On the left side you can see the variator itself. On the other side you can see clutch body. On this small video you can see how transmission works and makes the scooter go really really fast ;)

@MostBever The limiter is electronic, if you PM me the model, I'll find a tutorial for it.

Hey, my 50cc atv have a variator, but the top speed is limited to 45 km/h or cirka 30 mp/h. So where is this limiter? I know some people have removed it, but I can't find any pictures or vidoes of it.

Any ideas anyone?

HI i have problem with clutch body on the variator can i see there is a ring on it it is like overheating there T_____T

I have a Sym Jet euro x 50 and I just took the variator apart and remove the Nylon bearing which restricts the belt. End result: slight increase in speed and acceleration

@dolssen With centrifical forces. There are variator rollers, weights, in the variator, and when they are spinning (engine running, acceelrating etc.) the forces pull them to the outside, forcing the variator to open. And when the variator opens, it forces the CVT Belt up on the variator end, and obviously down on the other and. And vice versa while descelerating.
