Today when i rode to work it was very wet outside. I had no issues what so ever. Don't forget when it's raining outside and you're driving your car. As soon as the a/c power steering belts warm up it's almost impossible for water to make them slip. It has to be a **** ton of water to have an effect.maddiedog wrote:Aren't you concerned about water intrusion? I ride in the rain all the time -- I could certainly see water getting in there easily.dem0nk1d wrote:The simple fix i came up with is to just remove the plastic vent on the front of the cvt where the variator is. This will improve intake flow, but however i need to know if I can open the rear cvt area of the case. I see the rear of the cvt has a bearing which could possibly be some kind of load bearing for the drive axle, which is on the clutch side of things.
Plus it makes access to the CVT simple, which is an A+ in my book.
