Have no fear, it's easy. Swap the dimoby clutch out for a variator, and either swap the spring guide for the fully opened one or just cut the spring path out so the motor can swing all the way back. The only other difference will be with the gearing, the rear is usually a 47 or some such thing while the front may be as high as 13. The usual variated gearing is 11:54 since the front opens up so much higher.

Dude, you got a rigid frame, which is a score to some.

How fast are you looking to go? Also, try and figure out what speed cylinder you have. I was lucky to get a fast cylinder that did 38, but identifying one can be tricky.

It would be better if you were able to get a hold of a 4 ball variator, as opposed to three.

Are four ball variators stock on some bikes? _No, I don't think so, but you can get one from Bret. A three ball variator that has one ball removed will work fine_

Variator kits? seem like they have been getting bad rep, from price and performance. _The Variplus works well as long as your rubber engine mounts are in good shape_

The head badge says 25mph __Jesse can tell you if they can be ported with good results_

I’ve got a parts motor, what should I look for to tell me if the variator is still good? _if the plate slides freely and the balls move_

oh yea, you can port those out just fine, the usual on all of it, the intake side makes a huge difference, and also raising the exhaust a bit, although over raising makes them run bad off the line so go wider than taller. 1.5mm off the piston skirt is a good start on that. Following the blue pages works great, and don't forget to mill the head, works wonders.
