Malossi X-K Belt
The X-K Belt series from Malossi mainly comprises drive belts for scooters and maxi scooters. These high-quality V-belts are designed for high-displacement and high-performance engines.
Thanks to the use of resistant materials such as polyamide, chloroprene and Kevlar®, the belts are very strongly reinforced and durable. The design is designed for maximum strength and grip.
We have listed the exact dimensions of each belt in our store so that you can always find exactly the right V-belt.
When to change the V-belt?
On scooters, the engine power is transmitted to the rear wheel via the V-belt or drive belt, which connects the CVT variator to the torque drive. As a rule, it should be replaced every 10,000 to 20,000 km. The belt slips when it is heavily worn. By the way, a new belt also slips and needs a short run-in period.
How to change the drive belt?
Replacing the V-belt is a relatively easy, you don't need advanced technical know-how. The first step is to remove the variator cover to get to the variator. You'll need a piston stopper and a blocking tool to remove the CVT and clutch bell. You can then remove the worn V-belt and replace it with the new one. When reassembling, make sure that the V-belt is properly seated and has the correct tension.
