I saw millsc's post about mixing 9.5 and 10gram sliders.
MY Znen has a grabby clutch - I was shutting off the motor at stop lights today cause it was yanking the scooter too much.
The stock original rollers seem to have flat spots, but the grabby-ness is due to over 17+ gram rollers. 102grams total.
The belt was even squealing. Gates power belt 835 x 20 I think
I have a set of sliders from scrappydog, that all weigh about 9.75 to 9.79.if we round to 10, and the rollers to 17, I could mix and have an average of 13.5 grams. Mixing rollers and slider... Dont know if that's wise...
I need to get closer to reasonable so I can ride, and order a new set.
Would the 10s be too light? hmmm. I am trying to make a quick decision and get it back together before dark.

Steve I have never done it but , I have seen others post that they have . What is the rpm at idle ? If it is a 16" wheel scooter should be a 906x22.5x30 . 835 is the wrong belt .

The Znen has 12" wheels - just like this: valleyscootersdealers.com/MOTORINORIVIERA.htmlRiding it while still working on the Xingyue. The tach I am using is an implement type tach + hour meter, and doesn't react quickly. Not sure it is set correctly either. If it is correct, I was at 8500rpm at 45mph. Idle looks like 1500 to 2200. I put the 9.8 sliders in and took it for a short ride. Lots of variables and plenty of projects happening in my driveway.

I'm currently mixing 13g sliders and 10g rollers with mine,.....I think I'm still engaging too early however. I'll probably get some lower-weight sliders soon.

It is a balancing act. I went with the Hoca Variator with the standard 12 gram rollers when I had my 150 and it was prefect.
Clutch engaging at idle is either too high an idle, rollers too heavy or clutch spings too weak allowing the clutch shoes to engage early.

Rode to work with the 9.8's, Nice traffic, very short stops, but not as grabby. Otherwise the rode seems exactly the same. speedo tops out at 60mph, I forgot to turn on my GPS, so I dont know what my top speed was. Yesterday it was just under 50mph by GPS, and 60 on the speedo. 8400RPM on the tach/hour meter. This is the tach I am using - I think it is more ideal for generators and mowers - stuff that runs a constant speed all the time. www.amazon.com/Tachometer-Kawasaki-Motorcycle-Generator-Snowmobile/dp/B0049IFX56/ref=pd_sim_sbs_indust_2/183-3947756-9889960For sure time to swap out carbs and get a better exhaust.
