    everything is so clear when you get a real demonstration! I had looked at pictures and text explanations for a while but coudn't really imagine how it really worked... Now I understand why they say a CVT has essentially "infinite gears". Thanks!

    Very well explained! Even the smallest things in transmission can make a difference in performance. I've bought my second scooter - 2013 Aprilia SR50R (carb ) and I''m rebuilding it to 70cc ,i did rebuild my 1st scooter Yamaha Aerox to 70cc too ,but only changed the pipe, cylinder kit and air filter. It ran good for the small amount of tuning i did. But the SR50R i'm tuning a lot more -sport transmission ,Yasuni pipe , streetrace 70cc ,bigger carb ,intake etc. ,thanks to this video I learned a bit more about transmission tuning.
    I'm surprised that in USA the scooter tuning is also popular. I'm from Europe (eastern europe - Latvia) and here it's a very popular thing amongst teenagers and even adults. You can pass the moped exam if you're 14. ( I'm 16 btw.) We even have a scooter forum ,official scooter meetings twice a year (10 or 11 years since the 1st one) with cast-iron and aluminium class drag races , and a lot of scooter riders upgrade their rides a lot to win those drags..even porting cylinders and engine blocks.
    In the past I thought that in USA people only put 150cc big bore kits on their 4 stroke chinese scooters and that's all with tuning :D but I'm surprised that there are 2 stroke powerful builds with all the known brands - Malossi ,Polini , Stage 6 etc.

    may i ask how are the rules for you in the u.s. because i love to work on my scooter its fun and "relaxing some times" but if my scooter makes it to 80 kmh/ 50 mph they will take away my license and if you really unlucky the also conficated your scooter here in the netherlands. and what i always show the cops is he orignal manual from my piaggio typhoon. it says at 50mph atleast keep about 10m/33ft from the car in front of you. and they just say that its not true.

      Us and Canada if you have a motorcycle lisence (even a beginner's) there are no limitations on which motorcycle or how fast it is. There is limitations on when and where you can ride and writhed or not you can have a passenger. Until you're fully lisenced.

    I don't own a scooter yet, but I plan to. I'm an old motorcycle rider who has to ride a trike due to my wife's many health iseeus. But I am now looking at scooters for the amooth ride.
    I think the engineering that went into a scooter's cvt is amazing. It is so simple and yet works so well. Your video does a great job explianing how they work.
    I will probably change the clutch springs on whatever scooter I buy. I will install weaker springs becsuse I want the clutch to engage sooner than stock. Then I will look into the rollers to make sure the front pulley is giving me the max it can give. I don't know if I will change the spring on the rear pulley because it seems to me if I have the right weight rollers in the front pulley it shoud over come the spring in the rear and give me the maximun performance. Well, good enough for me anyway.
    Thanks for such a good video on a scooter CVT and thank you for removeing the cover and showing exactly how they work. I already knew how they work, but it was nice to watch one while it was in action.
