    its saggy because i pushed it down the clutch with my fingers, that way the belt dont get trapped when you tighten up the front pulley ;)

    it all returns to normal once you start her up and pull away...and of course your
    variator dont come loose half way down the street :D

    Looking good get some vids.
    Im sort of doing the same thing now as i have extra tuning bits.
    Oh and ive heard of bad things with stage six clutches like them falling apart but i dont know if they have sorted this problem. That front pulley looks good i might have to get one for my Nrg but doesnt this mean no electric start only kick. Oh and if you want a gear up i might be selling some soon :D .

    yeah will let you all know how i get on with the clutch, ive been looking
    at quite a few euro scooter set ups recently, and 1 thing struck me...
    stage 6 tuning parts feature on most of them....

    yes unfortunately the front pulley means no electric starter :(
    my original outer pulley was getting worn, and this stage 6 part was cheaper than a piaggio replacement...its a nice bit of kit though, very very light...and you can discard the plastic fan as well (it dont need one) :D

    very very nice scoot and motor, dont normally like runners but yours is smart looks good, go's good the perfect ride
    sip was doing clear cases for a few engines, also ally ones with cutouts so you can see all your expensive bits wizzing round

    I've seen these befor ages ago but I don't think they were reccommended as they just get dirty really quickly and you'll need to clean it stupid amount of times a day lol

    need to replace the strength of the tranny cover.. can make one if theres a 1" steel plate behind it to hold the engine together tho... or just window out the cover and infill with plastic/leave empty like everyone else.. its a nice space to write your name tho still and its not THAT hard to cut straight if you take your time and work out to where you want the hole
