Compatibility
| Brand | Model | Application |
|---|---|---|
| Genuine | Buddy 50 | All 50cc 2-stroke models |
Installation tip: Put the transmission in neutral (variator fully open) when installing so the belt seats deep in the rear pulley. Avoid wide-open-throttle for the first 20–30 miles to allow the belt to seat against the pulley faces and prevent premature glazing.
