Here is a Malossi variator for the many models of scooters using the Piaggio 50cc 2-stroke engine and CVT transmission system. Piaggio is Europe's largest manufacturer of scooters, and their brand names include Vespa, Aprilia, Derbi, Gilera, and their own eponymous Piaggio label.

One of the best enhancements you can make on an automatic scooter is the installation of a new, improved Malossi Multivar variator. Adding an after-market Malossi Multivar variator ensures a smooth start-up, "seamless" automatic shifting, improved high speed idle and a consistent driving high-performance. Additionally, tailoring the roller weights results in improved acceleration and a slightly higher top speed.

This variator for the Piaggio-made 2-stroke 50cc scooters contains all parts of the variator assembly, including pressure spring, slides, roller weights, pressure plate, and drive face.

A variator is the transmission of your scooter. It's the first thing to change to increase the performance of your bike, because it changes the way the power of your engine is transferred to your rear wheel. A performance variator that's tuned to the right RPM range for your motor will make a big difference in acceleration and the "oomph" of your ride.

Note: These variators are for scooters using the Piaggio 2-stroke 50cc engine commonly made from the 1990s until recently. They are not used on 4-stroke engine models.
