        Wilk1985 :
        Before you do anything else, please stop revving your vario setup with the wheel free from the ground. This is really dangerous, look at this:

        And i like the way its running.

        Wow look at that clutch exploding!!!
        The rpm must be way over 10.000?

        I want to test it for some time, and if I like it I will buy a CNC clutch bell :thumb

          If I should change the exhaust, wich type will you recomend me to buy?
          Sound must be low, and power high :thumb

          And wich exhaust will fit the Bravo?
          Ciao?

            That depends on what you consider quiet. The Gianelli Fire will probably perform very good too, but will make less sound than the Tecnigas. It will still make quite a bit of noise though like every other expansion exhaust.

              I like the tinkling sound of the thin steel.:swinging.but that is a matter of taste.

              Every expansion exhaust on the market is loud.
              Bud proma cc does have a very small silencer. almost everything you assemble on there’s better.

              In the middle is a silencer of a leovince hand made. It has a special design, and has a beautiful dark soud.

              The upper silencer is a silencer that I ‘m building. Its has a leovice design combined whit a promacc design.
              I expect it to be very quiet with a beautiful dark soud.

                I personally like the sound of a polini top one,
                And also the looks of it.
                But, the only problem is the spark plug cover.
                When its placed like it is normally, with the cable to above, I can’t get it off the spark plug.
                I placed it with the cable to the bottom. Now I can get the spark plug off real easy…

                  Thanks for the exhaust coments :thumb

                  I need a new cable kit.
                  Which one will fit my Bravo?
                  I have a brake light switch mounted on the rear brake cabel, just under the headlight.
                  I can’t find any cableset with this brake light switch?
                  Looks like this:

                    Anyon know why the Bravo front brake hub has a 12mm hole, and the SI brake hub has a 11mm hole?
                    My original Bravo hub also have this 11mm hole and axel.

                    JMPB sell only the 11mm axel, no 12mm?

                      For your cables, you can go to this site. http://cable-shop.nl/index1.html And buy this kit => brom- & motorfiets kabelset. You can select englisch for better understanding 🙂 Evertything is included. You have to cut the cabels your self. You can also email them to change the colour of the outercabels. I have red on my Rebel ^^
                      Works perfect and for 15E tis very cheap, you can do aprox 2 bikes with 1 set.
                      The inner cabels are a bit stiffer/ thicker as the JMPB original one’s but fits and works perfect.

                          I need some more help her guys.
                          Which oil do I use for the gearbox?
                          The manual says SAE EP90, but I can’t find that at my local “oil shop”
                          Can I use one of the two I have found?

                          Edit: I have also found this.

                              I’ve been using the 80W-90 oil for the last couple of months and its been working perfectly for me at least. It is absolutely critical to use transmission oil, or else it may result in irrepairable damage.

                                New problem today.
                                The belt slips in the front Malossi variator during start up.
                                Have I got the wrong belt?
                                I bougth this one: 13×1050

                                Text from JMPB:

                                Size 13 X 1050 ( For Rear clutch with a 100MM pulley )

                                I see that Malossi has a belt that is 13,4×1060. Will that be a better choice?

                                Malossi Vario belt , only in combination with the Variateur.

                                Width ( Size A ) = 13.4MM
                                Outer diameter ( Size C ) = 1060MM

                                  Sometimes the Malossi variator has this problem. The variator hub is a little to wide so your belt is only gripping on this variator hub instead of hub and variator housing/pulley itself.

                                  I’ve seen people who worked this variator hub so it is a little smaller shortened, but if you can find a wider belt this problem is also solved. The thing is. “Im not a big fan of Malossi V-belts.”
