Wondering if the new iteration if J.Costa variator has improved the short milage that it needed to be changed. Appreciate your feedback.
Hey Mike, what's the reason not to go with the Malossi belt?I would go with Malossi Variator & rollers. They have much more experience with transmission parts. Just don't use the Malossi transmission belt. Also stay away from Dr. Pulley HIT clutch - not worth the money. I would highly recommend the Dr. Pulley 28GM sliders in your stock variator. Try changing to sliders & them see if you like how the BMW feels, accelerates , etc. If you not satisfied them switch to Malossi. Dr. Pulley sliders & clips cost $100 from Buggy Parts . Not a big investment to test out .
Mitsuboshi sold out, i guess i will have to go Malossi. I appreciate your input !At JW69ers - The Malossi belts are known to not last on other scooters like Vespas. I don't think they're made well enough to trust for long intervals like 13K miles. The belt from Italy on eBay is the best deal .

The Mitsubishi belt is actually made in Japan so quality is much better that Malossi
Good luck on getting all your transmission parts...
That is exactlyThe cost is $110.07,I just placed an order at Carpimoto and it will arrive on the 13th. I like to keep wear items on hand and seeing this post reminded me I only have the original BMW belt on hand.
Hello!Mitsuboshi MAKES the OEM Belts for both BMW and Yamaha. They even have the SAME part numbers!
It is not the iteration but the rollers’ weight. PRO version comes with 21.5g rollers, and XRP version with 18g which makes more rpm and eats more fuel. IDK how close the rpms of the PRO are to stock variator, could someone with a PRO J.Costa please chime in?Wondering if the new iteration if J.Costa variator has improved the short milage that it needed to be changed. Appreciate your feedback.
