PART 1 How to modify the variator and clutch assembly on a GY6 Engine with sliders

This video shows how to replace the roller weights in the variator with Dr. Pulley sliders and also how to replace the main clutch spring in the driven pulley. This is a two part series. The first part deals with taking it apart and changing the variator rollers. The second part deals with the driven clutch assembly. This is a great inexpensive mod that can make your go kart faster on the trails!

hey buggy got a question I drive a 50 cc scooter and gonna change roller weights , if I went with a weight in the mid range would that be best for over all proformance ? take off ,acc, top speed .... I under stand lighter ones is good take off and heavy for top speed so what about mid sized ????

@Todry410 well you likely have mid grade in there now. Typically guys with scooters want to work with the top end. I'd leave the rollers alone and put an A9 cam on it. You'll lose a little pull on the bottom end but gain top speed. Somehwere in here I have a video of a stock Helix go kart vs a modded Helix go kart. It is an excellent example of what a cam can do for you.

Ya I want to do it but don't know how hard it is or what size clutch I have. But I am going to get my speed up to about 60 so I can street legalize it. My truck insurance is huge and would be nice to use my buggy as a summer car insurance is only 25 bucks hahaha

If you have a 150cc, you will have a very hard time getting it to do 60mph. You would be better off getting a 250cc or bigger.
