ON VARIATORS
What is supplied in the multivar?
The package includes all the components you see in the relative photo.
Are Malossi variators supplied complete with rollers?
Yes.
Why are two series of rollers supplied in some multivars?
As indicated in the assembly instructions, the two series of rollers are needed
- either to vary the scooter’s gear ratio curve by perfectly adjusting the speed and pick-up
- or because the multivar can be mounted on two different vehicle displacements and the correct weight must be mounted.
How are the rollers mounted?
- The rollers do not have a mounting direction.
How does the Malossi variator improve performance?
The variator increases pick-up, not speed. With our variator, the scooter gains pick-up, linear shifting, greater mechanical “serenity” when riding at high speeds and constant performance not possible with the base version.
After how many km do I need to change the rollers?
If the variator is used for competitive purposes, the wear of the rollers and sliders needs to be checked every 1000-1500 km. If used on-road, the check can be made every 5000-6000 km
What happens if I increase or lighten the weight of the rollers?
Increasing the weight of the rollers will force the engine to work with a lower number of revs; in this case an engine is needed with maximum torque at low speed (pull down). Decreasing the weight of the rollers on the other hand, makes the engine work with a higher number of revs; this happens with engines with maximum torque at high speed (pull up).
What does the piston selection identify?
The selection identifies the right coupling between the piston and cylinder. You can find this letter on the piston crown or on the base of the cylinder. Zero indicates the smallest measurement and D the largest. Each letter increases the piston size by 1 hundredth of a millimetre. Each double letter (00-AA), instead, increases the piston size by 5 micron.
After how many km do I need to replace the Malossi toothed belt?
We recommend servicing the toothed belts in accordance with the recommendations of the vehicle manufacturer.
