Vespa(2020+) GTS/GTV/300 HPE OEM Variator Slider

NOTE: Sold individually. Three (3) sliders are required per variator assembly. Please update your quantity accordingly before checkout.

Keep your transmission shifting smoothly and quietly with this Genuine Piaggio OEM Variator Guide Slider (MPN: 1A012092). Also known as a variator ramp plate guide or shoe, these small nylon inserts slide over the arms of the variator ramp plate, acting as a crucial buffer between the metal components of your Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT).

As your scooter accelerates, these sliders endure constant friction and high heat. Over time, they wear down, become brittle, or develop flat spots—resulting in erratic shifting, sluggish acceleration, and a noisy transmission rattle. Because they are an inexpensive wear item, it is highly recommended to replace all three sliders every time you service your variator rollers or change your drive belt.

Features & Benefits

• Genuine OEM Quality: Authentic Piaggio factory replacement part guarantees the correct material hardness and tight fitment tolerances to prevent premature wear.
• Restores Smooth Shifting: Eliminates stickiness or hesitation in the CVT ramp plate, bringing back factory-fresh throttle response and linear acceleration.
• Protects Costly Transmission Components: Prevents metal-on-metal contact inside the variator assembly, saving you from having to replace the entire variator pulley prematurely.
