Undoing variator

i would have suggested pilots or simelar but vee rubbers grip really well when hot. (never grip at all in the UK)

 

so they should be sweet over here then hehe.
basically its the brand people stock for a 120-70 10 tyre

 

yay its on!!!
im so happy with it.

it took a bit to get the nut off, but i finally got there.
i also cleaned out the brake drum with thinners, and gave it a light sand.
holy crap it pulls up well now. i think the back outbrakes the front now (until it wears smooth again).

anyway, got it up to 80kmph (50mph) last night down a small slope, and maintained a solid 65kmph (40mph) back up the same slop. not bad for a 70cc with everything stock. does 75 (45+mph) on the flat.
