Could be the sliders in the variator, that's what happened to me. I thought it was the fan too until I opened the side where the variator is and the sliders were broken.

Although it may be a pain for people who have the sense and knowledge, I see all too many people here in Miami go straight from never riding a bike to buying a big 1000 CC sport bike only to crash and take their lives. The license test here isn't much to cheer for either. Most of the time you can get away with driving around on a parking area for a couple of minutes and you're done.

I am at 4700 km, 2010 model I bought it in November I think. I have had some problems with it but nothing I couldn't fix myself. I changed the headlight and the variator and that has been the most expensive repair.

I've been using Dr. Pulley sliders, unfortunately they broke along with the variator  so I can't give it an accurate lifetime count but I've had them for 4k KM so far

Sorry for tread jacking but while we are talking about the spring, do I need any special tools to change it?

Oh yea I already did, I meant I will keep an eye and ear out for the new variator I just bought. I don't want it to get trashed too :-)

Alright, thanks guys :-)

I guess I'll try and keep an eye out for any noise or disturbance in the variator area so maybe I just need to buy new sliders instead of the whole variator

Do the rollers break because of the de-restriction putting too much stress on the variator or cause of something else?

I have a local shop nearby that sells this

There's no pic but what's included is the variator, rollers, sliders, plate, spring (for clutch I think?), bushing and I think that's it...

This would be what I need right?

Agility 50 / Variator Damage

Hey again all :-)

So after my scooter was making some noises and going significantly slower, I decided to open up the variator area and it pretty much looks like this


Some of the holders on the metal plate were broke and the rollers had big jacks in them...

Anyway, I guess the best thing is to buy everything new but I'm not sure what has better quality/price ratio. And what should I think of when buying a new variator?

Damn, the regulator is $65 + $30 shipping from TaYoung.

Also an interesting thing that I got when I emailed Ta Young:

"If you see your failure part doesn't look like mine.
I am sure that is my Chinese competitor's product.
The sell very cheap price and result in your situation in many place."
