In my experience, the best belts for scooters are the originals.
Aftermarket ones even Malossi, their belts are a little outside of the original Kymco specs. So that is not ideal.

Original is best at this stand point.

I had one like that but the ventilation was stopped up by mice packing seeds in the cover blocking the intake. The CVT runs hot anyway so, yeah, you may ride too hot!

20x12, 15 grams (8 pack)  So this is what I need to order for rollers?  If so I will let the garage know this to help them out. They can't find in their books.

Kat, if the filter in the aluminum belt case is dirty, cleaning should be vewy, vewy carefully done! Elmer Fudd says that foam tears vewy easily! Dint know there was a filter in the plastic CVT cover...

It looks like it is pretty important to clean up that filter on my CTV COVER.

Good video! No filter in the intake on the DT300i. That would have kept the mice out!

Kat is shocked when I just heard that Kymco dealer wants $9 a roller! really! geeez! The air filter is $40 bucks to. Tell me do you all think I will have to change the rollers now or can I get more time out of them without problems?  I am at 25000kms.

Not sure what size your scoot takes, but full set of Dr Pulley slider weights run $30-$45. Riders here can advise correct weights to reproduce stock performance.
