..looks like wear due to a belt that is too long...

...rubbing the bendix...

Yup, as i thought but i cant go any shorter at all, 729MM long is the stock length and that rubs the bendix  ???

Im resigned to ditching the bendix now anyway, i want more variator in there instead so im goin to see about maybe using the machine shop at work to try mod another inner and outer variator to fit in, one with an extra 3-5mm would easily fit in i think? Just going to swap in a new 736 belt for now with no bendix to keep me rollin for a bit. Once i take her off the road, prob after summer, i want to strip it down and give it all a complete overhaul and do some major mods on the bodywork, seat and trans etc. Once i got the Vespa finished up i will be running that every day and the A50 will just be for pure fun :D
