Greetings:
Monday evening to spin wrenches, life is Good.
Plastics are high quality, intuitively screwed together. Still, a lot of unfamiliar fasteners. The side cover has a cover, apparently to deaden sound. The outer sheave has fan blades and a filtered air intake with an exit astern. It needs it. The belt cavity is eerily familiar, albeit in Brobdignangian dimensions.

That clutch, like those on modded 4xH.P. Elites, is undersized for the torquey 250 pushing well over 550 pounds of scoot and rider. The pulley is huge, why not make the clutch the same diameter?

The clutch bell is blued from the heat. I de-glazed the three small pads and reinstalled the existing belt, because the Gates item was a mm narrow and at least an inch short. That's a spare ZX belt inside the Flex stocker. Everything's bigger in Flexes.
The K mod wasn't done as the Forum prescribes. The Reflex vario has 3 short ramps with 21-gram rollers and 3 long ones sporting 31 gram weights. One of those is almost the weight of the TOTAL in Flash's vario. Anyway all were replaced withe the amber 20s shown. Acceleration improved a Ton. The 120-gram total is more than the 93 remaining after the K mod, which removes the 3 black 21-gram rollers. Always a fan of symmetry and balance. We'll see what it does to top speed.
