...so imma go clean this thing up and put in some different rollers...

..all i have is a set of 5.5 grams...

I bought the variator from scooter assassins, I thought it seemed ok, thebatman reckons it is too heavy. How much are you paying for a malossi variator?

No, sorry, I meant I bought one from s.a., just referencing how some are not so good, thebatman reckons they are too heavy, I don't know if mine was, but i think it might be a little lighter now. It won't be long and I will have to look for a new one and belt too.

It's a shame. Before seeing that I had thought ncy was good from what I read.
