Polini
Description
This Polini +15% contra spring helps your scooter put its power to work with firmer rear-pulley belt control and CVT shifting tuned to your engine. Made in Italy for compatible Honda PCX, GY6, and other scooter applications, it adds spring load when your setup needs more support than the standard spring provides. Pair it with the right belt and roller weights to dial in how your scooter responds when you roll on the throttle.
Key Features
- Increased spring load: The +15% specification provides a firmer option for tuning the rear pulley.
- CVT shift tuning: Works with the variator, belt, and roller setup to influence transmission behavior.
- Blue finish: Easily identifies this Polini spring in your tuning supplies.
- Made in Italy: Manufactured by Polini for compatible rear-pulley applications.
- Installation guide: Download Polini's compression-spring and EVO Slider instructions below.

Confirm Polini reference 243.076, spring dimensions, spring-seat fit, and rear-pulley configuration before installation. A contra spring controls the rear pulley; it is not a clutch-shoe engagement spring. Performance depends on the complete CVT setup rather than spring stiffness alone.
Polini recommends using the lowest spring load that transmits power effectively. Excessive spring load can increase belt wear and reduce transmission efficiency. Check belt condition and variator operation before changing springs. The shared guide covers multiple spring families; its general color/load examples do not replace this part's specific specifications. EVO Slider instructions apply only where supplied with the applicable product and do not establish that a slider is included here.
