Another great video! Dr. Pulley ain't got nothing over Dr. Mitch the "Grand Master Wizard" mechanic of all scooters! When I bought my '96 Helix 6 years ago with 22,000 miles on it the CVT was slipping a bit on take offs so I decided that I was just going to replace everything on it for piece of mind but didn't want to take my chances with a unreliable Chinese unit so I wound up buying every single part from Honda and assembled it myself but ditched the rollers for some 21 gram Dr. Pulley sliders dusted with Blaster dry lube per watching your videos and what a difference it made, it's still been very reliable but I may tear it down for inspection purposes after this riding season ends. 🤔😊😊😊
Great video man!! :) Just a tip, when you are cleaning caked variator, you can use tiny painting brush with gasoline, diesel, paint thinner.. for a quicker job of loosening the grime, and then you can use brake cleaner just to clean it all the way without too much wait for the drying ( but be careful with colored parts), and the small air compressor (24l) is a game changer for dusting off :)
Hey, when you are changing the belt or rollers / sliders, good time to check the torque drive... Depends on how many miles you put on it... look inside see if there are good amount grease in there and put it on the ground and put your feet on top of it, pull the outer pulley towards you, if it moves very smooth then it's good. I greased it and good for many many miles like over 25k miles
Hello Mitch, I saw that MAXIMA brand has two different products in their website: MAXIMA WATERPROOF GREASE and MAXIMA ASSEMBLY GREASE Which one is better to use in the clutch parts you mentioned? Thanks and best wishes! 🙏
Hey, assembly grease for assembling the engine parts together. Waterproof grease is for parts outside of the engine like CVT parts, wheel bearings, axle bolts and more

I own this exact scoot, youre a saving light!
Very interesting as always Mitch.
Greetings from Greece..
I have had that scooter as my main transportation. Even in winter! One weak spot was that the ignition timing got off set
Спасибо за полезное видео ,Митч Ты лучший!!! Но хотелось бы ещё прокатиться Honda Elite 150 .
good video as always
Appreciate that🤙🏼

Awesome thanks for the tip, will try that next time🙌🏼🙌🏼
Great job of cleaning up the inside of the variator......Not so much the outside. I could not leave it filthy like that!
Hi mitch when to change the grease of torque drive.
Hey, when you are changing the belt or rollers / sliders, good time to check the torque drive... Depends on how many miles you put on it... look inside see if there are good amount grease in there and put it on the ground and put your feet on top of it, pull the outer pulley towards you, if it moves very smooth then it's good.

@@MitchsScooterStuff thanks mitch ur videos help us.
Hey Mitch, I have a ch150 I'm working on. What do you recommend for clutches? Mine are toast
Thanks. Am working on a 1984 Honda NH 125 and wondered how this was done. The service manual shows zero.
Yeah the manuals can be really lacking sometimes! I have my 84 aero 125 too
