i believe a tool made to zero tolerance would be hard, if not impossible, to use, especially in regards to wrenches, sockets, and screwdrivers.
even crank and rod bearings have some tolerance.

Good idea and it is nice and small, easy to make one on your own actually.

You knock the ZTR Variator tool to promote your own? Not the way to make friends Brian.
For the record Zero Tolerance Racing products name has more to do with our temperament regarding copy cat knockoff hacks than it does with the actual manufacturing process of our products. A bit of a inside joke if you will.

The creator of the above variator tool sent me a demo model. I won't say much other than it's not quite ready for general use without some design changes. Don't PM me either with questions.

Well you where the science project it was a demo model. What I do see is that it could bust the existing casting where the bolt goes in and you would have one less bolt to hold the CVT.

A demo model is not a prototype. It's an actual production model sent out to "demo" it to potential buyers.

Demo Models are just that, and when demoing and the people find fault the builder will take your suggestion and change it or take your suggestion and save it for a later model. But we would not think of asking you how the demo went, but I presume you did give him feedback good and bad.

Totally agree Carasdad, why get a tool that has a single function when you can get a Impact wrench that you can use to take the Variator and the Clutch and many other things beside just using it on your scoot.

110v is hard to come by on the side of the road with a broken belt. Just sayin'.

Most bikes have they're variator nut "super" factory tight. My impact has 600lbs torque and mine almost struggled to break the factory seal. Once the factory seal is broken then any impact can work fine but you need something heavy duty for the first loosening.
