Recommended Posts

I found one on Ebay for pretty cheap but it has the ECVT transmission, I have no experience with one of these. Are they any good and exactly what is it?? Thanks, I know one of you guys can fill me in. I assume it's a Electronic Control Variable Transmission, is it one of those with a big belt and a pulley? Are they worth a damn?? :-\

Here's a basic but pretty accurate review of the ECVT...

I see the majority of available ECVT Justy examples with a 'needs transmission work' byline. Would personally stick with the 5 Speed for ooomph, better MPG control, and most importantly enjoyment. Although I wound up with a carbureted, the fuel injected '91-'93 would also provide additional consistency and a couple of more horses. (Under 100 HP, every horsie counts!)

 

Good Luck Shopping,
