I have 2013 model 150s and have NCY variators on them that are advertisedetermined for the 2011 pcx 125. It fits and performs as expected, so I wouldn't worry about whether it is advertised for a 2011 or not.

seller refused to sell me j.costa set because j.costa have said it's not compatible with my 2011. I'm looking at buying malossi multivar 2000 variator, malossi Kevlar drive belt and c.j beets exhaust (made in japan) just thought I'd see if anyone has used any other parts and know that they work well on 2011.

There have been comments about the Malossi belt being poor quality/wearing/snapping.

Their multivar will be good though.

You might want to think about getting their clutch springs too.
Malossi 10.5g rollers
Malossi yellow clutch springs
Malossi yellow variator spring
HJC wind screen
