Malossi Multivar Performance Variator - Honda Ruckus
Description
Make every roll-on more rewarding with the Malossi Multivar performance variator for compatible Honda Ruckus, Metropolitan and related scooter applications. Engineered and manufactured in Italy, its recalculated roller-ramp geometry delivers stronger off-the-line acceleration, smoother mid-range response and extra top-end speed by improving how the CVT moves the belt through its operating range.
Key Features
- Performance shifting geometry: Optimized roller ramps support smooth belt travel and keep the engine in its effective powerband.
- Precision drive boss: Ground, case-hardened silicon-steel construction supports smooth sliding under operating loads.
- Self-lubricating sliders: Three low-friction resin gliders help prevent binding and prolong pressure-plate service life.
- Included HTRoll rollers: Six wear-resistant 16x13mm, 7g rollers provide a starting point for tuning stock or lightly modified setups.
- Matched kit components: Includes variator, ramp plate, drive boss, rollers, three sliders and spacer components.
- Italian manufacture: Malossi Multivar engineering in a 97mm variator.
