It is never dumb to ask an intelligent question.
See the little round black things in this picture? They are rollers, or variator weights, and they engage the drive gear to make it go. As the variator spins faster the rollers or sliders move out to the outer portion of the pulley to change the gear ration and make the scooter go faster. Sliders are not round and slide out instead of rolling out.



the picture is from a post by dademoss, nice to have it to refer to

Kewl! Thanks for the info. Sliders are supposed to be better?

[Rebel]

Yes, sliders tend to be better.

I used these on EBAY and they work great. Two reds for the break lights, and four amber for the turn signals. I am using(not put in yet) basic T10 wedge lights for the plate light, running lights, and dash lights.

To do your entire bike it would cost about $8, and your time.
