I haven't tried any other belts yet. I did go to 13g rollers from the 12g sliders, but two rides since Saturday, I was in traffic so 40/45 was as fast I got to go.
I could use the 17G and 11G or 13G (or whatever other weight rollers I have) mix to get a higher average.

if you could turn each nut counter clockwise and try prying up with a thin blade of some sort - to get it to catch.
a hacksaw could work, dremels are a very nice to have tool. (even the cheap Harborfrieght version)

Cut the nuts with a dremel.
It is hard to turn both nuts anti-clockwise and lift the mainifold at once.
You could maybe just go ahead and cut a stud or both and replace with new studs and nuts, or with bolts.
My Xingyue has a taller manifold and uses bolts instead of studs.

I didn't expect that either. Extra weight? Or less weight after shedding some material, in this case.
I have a pair of the Craftsman pliers like that - Broke them on the first use and haven't ever had them handy when I'm going near Sears. Bet they've been broken for nearly 18 years now.

No, I had only one set in at a time: - originally the 17g, then 9.5 or 10g sliders, then 12g sliders, and now 13g rollers.
I finally took the clutch off to have a look on why it was grabby, even at 1600rpm idle.
I never noticed the chips before, but there must have been some that escaped or were also ground to dust. There is too much missing material for it to be recent (since the NYC variator with 12g sliders install).
I had the clutch off the Xingyue but didnt see anything like this. I am not sure if the stacks of plates were naked or encased. I will have a look again when I install the 13g sliders.
I don't know of my pictures show it, but the V pulley on the clutch looks fairly unused, like the belt isnt pulling deep. Maybe it just wont show the used area like the variator pulleys do. If I get back in there soon, I will mark that pulley to see how far the belt travels.

I popped off the CVT cover from the Znen. s235.photobucket.com/user/jeepsteve92xj/library/scooter/ZNEN/Znen-CVTFound a few chips - I don't recall seeing any when I've had the cover off before. There is a small slot where chips could fall out. I'd bet some chips were ground to dust in the clutch. The chips seem to be from a casing around the lobes of the clutch. I sanded down the inside of the bell to take the glazing off, and took a file to the clutch material to de-glaze. Reinstalled the variator with 13g rollers (Had 12g sliders) I didn't get to get a top speed run. But for sure the clutch was smoother, not nearly as grabby as it has been. |

Reving right off the line, every time to head for 50mph, or starting out slow due to traffic, no difference in the top end. I've tried backing off and re-throttling, with no improvement.
Unfortunately the GY6-B BBK and heads are more $$$.
The Znen is a standard GY6, so it will get some deep breathing and displacement sooner. Also need to up the rollers/sliders.

My ride to work and back is mostly 45mph zones, so from the first right turn onto Bluemound, I'm WOT, and will maybe get 55mph down the long shallow downhill. As soon as the road levels or has a slight incline, I'm slowing down.
Running nearly 100% WOT, I got 50mpg on my last tank. New sliders on the way. I seriously need to consider a BBK, BV head and a cam.

I was told on this forum a while back that a 50cc A9 will not work in a 150.
