Here is my 2009 E-Ton Sport 50. It is my first scooter but has triggered an obsession. Seriously. I may be selling it in the near future and getting a 150cc but thats another story. Currently: 170 miles 72cc BBK (Enviromoto) #88 Jet UNI Filter 8G Rollers "Vented" CVT Cover Dont mind the hose in the picture, it is connected now. And the UNI is installed as of 5 min ago. Yeah... It spent some time in my living room while I was away on my honeymoon. Anyway, This is a great site with endless info. Thanks. UPDATE I have modified a few things and wanted to update my post... Again. Here are the newest pics as of 5 min ago. First, The further modified CVT Cover. It was still heating up and I wanted to remove the cover completely but the starter gear had a bearing support in the cover. So I just left that part of the cover and cut off the rest. (No rain in socal). I also got an intake tube to get the filter out in the fresh air some. Lastly I made an intake fan scoop. It fits great and I can create a small how-to if anyone is interested. It cost $8 and is available at homedepot.

In an effort to control CVT temps, I have done as follows. Not the sexiest mod but it will get the job done.

I don't know if you still have this scoot or not. But I found a CVT kit called 'ankle-biter'.... It allows you to run an open belt, while supporting the starter geartrain that the original cover's holding up. If it still overheats with this setup, then I dunno what to tellya...

you realize you were moving in the right direction, airflow speaking, then you went and counter acted it, the cvt breathes threw the front, slicing a hole in the side allows air to move around and air coming IN the front to be easily expelled threw the REAR. when you put that scoop on the rear the air dam effect forces some air in under pressure but now it must fight its way to be exited threw the front, its like trying to flush a toilet uphill,
secondly long tube intakes typically increase torque at the expense of higher rpm power. the benefit of breathing slightly colder air isnt lost to the velocity over distance, its like breathing threw a long straw versus breathing threw a short straw, which is easier, assuming same diameter.
if your cvt is that hot, you have another problem
