At 10,007 miles the belt broke on my like 150i. I ordered a new belt, rollers and sliding block from the Kymco Dealer. Kymco had no belts in stock in the USA. I found a new belt at Scooter Dynasty in California. I got it in but scratched up the flat faces on the Variator pulley so I ordered new ones. Luckily these were in stock.
So I replaced much of the variator and the belt. This variator does not have any sliding blocks. The old rollers had really bad flat spots on them.
Before the belt change my top speed was down to 58-59 MPH on the speedo which only reads 1-2 MPH high. After the change I could get 65-66 MPH.
I think I'll change this belt and rollers around 9K. The manual calls for belt replacement at 12K.
