With the Belt going Full Range now, do you think you'll experience BELT SLAP on the top of the Case?

Cheers!

The photo shows the belt all the way out in the back but the video shows that it is running in the same place as before at idle.

Re: Tuning the Forza 300 CVT

Just mounted the J.Costa vario, mounting was a piece of cake and all fits perfectly, didn't need the provided distance ring needed when the vario is rubbing the crankcase behind the vario :) Striking detail is that the belt now use the full range of the rear pulley, before there was 5mm left unused,...

Re: Tuning the Forza 300 CVT

Arrived :D Glad that I did go for the latest J.Costa vario, there are clearly more changes than only the blue sliders. Looks like the bell has a smoother finish. http://www3.picturepush.com/photo/a/14849796/640/Forza-300/20151016-163254.jpg The older one. http://www3.picturepush.com/photo/a/14816801...

Re: New Forza 300 ABS Owner! AHOY & HOWDY from TEXAS!

Thanks BB 8) That is one COOL Speed Test in the 3rd Video! The 144km/h equates to 89.48mph here in the U.S.. FAST for a 300! I liked the Video at the 3:30 mark , when the Forza switched to the right lane, and started to Slow Down. Sounded like a Fighter Jet coming off of the After Burners, with the ...

Re: Tuning the Forza 300 CVT

No problem if you mix them 2x3 pieces, the effect is the same as 6x 17g.

Btw, what screen do you have?

Re: Tuning the Forza 300 CVT

I agree, its very hard to find out what to take and what to ignore. Who knows what these marketing charts are supposed to be showing. Other than the chart they show their board members of increasing sales from questionable advertising. Like the chart you posted for the aftermarket clutch that showed...

Re: Tuning the Forza 300 CVT

Returned the J.Costa with the older white sliders and directly ordered the latest version with the more wear resistant bleu sliders at a other vendor, should arrive in two weeks. Also got a Dyno test from J.Costa, but its not clear to me what and how they tested :? http://www4.picturepush.com/photo/...
