Polini/malossi pulley

[jetlag]

Can anyone tell me the difference between the two looking to buy one but could not find good close of pictures of the them. Or if anyone can compare it to a Keli pulley

[jetlag]

And this is for a dio motor

Variator?
Outer diameter of the malossi for ruckus that fits dio is 97mm. Polini 94. Ramp angles maybe different, but I dont know if fine tuners could distinguish the difference. Keli is around 90mm

use the PG billit front face!

Maddog, could you provide a link?

I can. They are from VT Cycles http://www.ebay.com/itm/Phongeer-Hi-Per ... 1701549649

Thank you. If I didnt already have a alu drive face coming from g9 I would certainly buy that.

So basically using the Alu one just makes things lighter right? That and the clutch bell are about the thing on the motor I haven't changed yet. How much does it help?

[DirtyE]

The effects are very small. Individual you won't feel, but all things together have an impact. Cases flowed, lighter parts, port and matching.....

I just need one that will fit on my malossi crankshaft without play

Greetings:

The larger diameter of the front pulley increases the belt-controlled "gearing", like a bigger front sprocket on a bicycle will be harder to pedal, but in theory capable of higher top speed. Like a bicycle, the actual realization of that higher speed depends on the horsepower available from the engine. (or Pedal-Pusher). You can gear things up to the moon, but if the power isn't there, it won't go any faster. In fact sometimes it goes the other way.

Polini for DIO/AF16-18 is up 3.5mm from stock (87.5mm, methinks) at 91mm. Polini for Ruckus is 94mm, but you have to shave the crankcase at the starter housing to clear the bigger circle. Malossi-for-Ruckus is 97mm, so you have to shave a bit more. Both Polini and Malossi are great quality, trouble-free and long-lasting parts. The cheaper Keli worked for me just fine, but I don't know if they make one in the bigger "for-Ruckus" diameters.
