Honda Ruckus Variator: Improves Speed + Acceleration

My friends often ask what they should modify first when they get their Honda Ruckus, and my suggestion would be to upgrade with the Polini Variator. The Polini Variator improves acceleration and increases top speed on the Honda Ruckus Zoomer (if tuned correctly).

The Polini Variator transmits the power of the engine to the rear wheel while keeping the engine in an exactly defined rev-band. The Polini Ruckus Variator is also the biggest diameter Variator on the market, this mean a higher top speed compared to other Ruckus Variators. Polini Variators are also made of a high quality plated aluminum alloy so wear under the higher horsepower conditions are virtually eliminated. With a stock Variator, after 2, 000km you will notice visible ripples on the surface that can make the scooter feel as if it is "shifting". This can also cause excessive belt wear.

Polini Variators use a drive face bushing that is a high quality self lubricating bronze with closer tolerances and wear characteristics than on the stock unit. These Variators transmit power to the wheel and do it consistently. Strong, consistent acceleration and torque! Very easy to fit and to modify.

The Honda Ruckus scooter turns heads like no other. This economical scooter has a distinctive look that attracts people from all over, you gotta love it.

The stock scooter is powered by a 49cc single cylinder 4-stroke engine and includes a 1.5 gallon gas tank, dual headlights and oversized fat tires that grip the road for easy handling. Modifying the Ruckus with scooter parts are becoming more and more popular for a personalized look and more speed. In the Ruckus scooter world, customizing with ruckus parts for aesthetic reasons are equally important as modifying for speed.
